Question, is it possible to live off of MTurk and turk full time (pay bills, rent, etc)? Have you done this before with MTurk and still have left over to do other things? I'm still deciding what to do and would like your opinions. Thanks!

So, was the dropdown table showing nothing, but the projected earnings (on the dash too or just the export) that had yesterday's earnings?

It showed yesterday's until I manually clicked update, then it showed $0.00

Its possible, but not easy.

Alright thanks, I think I may have fixed it. We will know tomorrow for sure.

I turk full time cuz my real job is slow. I am able to pay my bills and buy things I need around the house with some spare. I guess it depends on what extra things you want to do. And it probably depends on how much your bills are. I also have 2 teenage kids and 3 dogs that I tend to.

It depends on how little you can live on and how much you care about having a life outside of turk.

It is possible but it's a lot of work, also depends on how little you can live on. You would have to know what you're doing and be on top of everything, it's a lot to learn at 1st. You will also feel like you can never leave your pc doing it as full time, because you may miss something and you will most likely feel like you're working 24/7.

Others may feel different, but I find it a lot more enjoyable doing it as a side job along side a part-time job somewhere else.

I mostly just do it for fun money now tho. Nice food, games, gifts, trips ect. If I really hit it hard sometimes I make more then my part time tho on good weeks.

I make more in actual income than I did at my previous job, plus however much voluntary overtime I feel like doing to make extra (or in the case of right now, to play catch-up).

Doesn't come with insurance, vacation/sick/holiday or retirement plans, though

Maybe. It depends on your expenses. Someone with a $300/month rent is going to have a lot more of a chance of doing it than someone with a $3000/month rent. Cost of living is wildly different all over the country.
