I am not sure why it isn&#39;t advertised a lot online. Maybe because the more get rich quick schemes are. People want quick money. The scams and make millions in a week pyramid schemes are advertised heavily. The real work at home jobs and gigs are advertised because they don&#39;t pay nearly as much so people don&#39;t want to do them. I am not sure why it isn&#39;t advertised a lot online.

When surveys don&#39;t work properly such as the link not working or if the survey doesn&#39;t provide a code at the end.

I do Mturk from home because I can do it while being home with my children. My husband works outside of the home and I need to be home to take care of our children. It is nice to be able to contribute a bit with extra income without having to find childcare. I can make money and take care of the kids at the same time.

Well, i think this is an exaggeration, earning amount to throw a party, maybe that can happen to US workers. When I&#39;m doing well i tend to spend a little more, maybe ordering a dinner, but throwing a party is way too much.

Honestly, this rarely happens to me, usually the problems occurs very early during the task so there&#39;s really not much time wasted, there were sometimes that i submitted the hit even with the glitch and the requester paid it. What also happens is a survey without code in the end, but in most cases they pay it too.

There is really not much you can do, you depend on the good will of the requester and most of them are pretty honest and pay you if a glitch really happened due to their mistake.

Yes, it is not fair if the glitches happens due to a requesters mistake, but sometimes the problem is in the worker&#39;s side, like a task that demands powerful computers or internet and you don&#39;t have it. Like i said, must of the time i don&#39;t have problems with glitches, usually they happen pretty early and when they happen later most of the requesters are honest and give you fair compensation.

Well, I&#39;m from Brazil and you can make here payments above minimum wage due to the devaluation of Brazilian Real, I&#39;m not good with &quot;real&quot; jobs that demands talking to people, i like to do my own things, so MTurk fits very well, because i don&#39;t like to lead neither to be leaden, I don&#39;t like to receive or give orders, so working on my own pace, without stress and being able to return jobs that I&#39;m not willing to do at anytime fits very well with my personality.

I don&#39;t have any other source of income. I am a student.

Plus having some money in my pocket makes me feel little less worried. So yeah I do get underpaid but I am fine for now, as I am not dependent on Mturk for my bread and butter.

Nothing to do with my personality. And I don&#39;t think it needs any personality. Mturk has various types of work so it is just a source of making quick bucks for me. I don&#39;t believe it can be a source for full time earning until and unless the person has absolutely no skill, if that&#39;s the case then Mturk too becomes not that good place for them, because certain tasks require certain level of education and expertise.

Yep, seems true. Not many people know about this stuff and the ones who apply for it are usually rejected. So yeah. Although I do believe Amazon may have their own reasons. Don&#39;t know their inside business models so can&#39;t say. May be they also want to provide high quality work to their customers. Yep, seems true.
