Is Making Money Online Really Worth It?

I got this inspiration of writing this as I was on my way to meet a friend in a taxi. He was a really old guy about in his 60s and while waiting at a traffic light he did something that shocked me. He actually was counting the money he earn for taxi driving today. At the same time, he also complained about the recent increase in oil prices and that was really affecting his income.

So I naturally asked him, how many hours did you work just to cover his rent ( a day rental of taxi in Singapore is SG$96). He told him he need to drive from 7am to about 2pm just to earn enough to cover his rent and petrol (petrol was an additional $35). So I ask him further on how much he earns on a daily basics for working a whole day shift from 7am to 5pm and he told me about SG$40 to SG$50 per day (which took him 10 hours of working time).

If i were to take $50 one day that would be $1,500 a month for the taxi driver. The worst was, the taxi driver actually do not rest during weekends as they still do pay the rent regardless if they are resting or sick.

Here’s The Thing About Making Money

I know many people who ever tired making money online always love to complain it just simply do not work or they are not getting results. But most often if I just asked them how much time they spend on the business most would reply maybe 1 hour a day. But also, there were be a few who mention I spend 10 hours per day on online marketing but still get zero results.

The thing is I remember when I started, I took a total of 6 months of learning and failing before I made my first US$50 online. That first US$50 really woke me up and I knew from then on making money online was possible. Do note that getting that 1st cheque will never be a easy journey for anyone. Some people take maybe 8 months or even years just to make the 1st cheque.

The interesting part was once I knew what was the formula that I need to spend to make that amount of money. I was about to really calculate how much I like to earn online based on the amount of efforts.

So Is Making Money Online Really Worth It?

Well I would say for sure 100% yes! Why? Well after spending countless months learning and testing stuff, I have experience some days where I can make US$1,000+ in just one day. Comparing that with working 10 hours a day to make $50 as a taxi driver or in my paid job of $1,400 a month which you think is better?

I think the major problem here is that many people who jump onto online business always treat it as just a part time business. The truth is that it’s also a REAL BUSINESS and like any business it need really lots of time and effort to build it up.
