My daily goal is $5, I like to try for $25/week. I don't have masters. I wish I knew what got you masters so I at least had a goal to try for lol
Lol oh I wish I had masters, I've been turking for 3 years and I still am at the same spot as day 1.

I think the masters is just given to some people. :/

To make it through the day without hating myself, and one day I’ll reach that goal.

But seriously, $10 on days that I turk. No masters.
I am absolutely shook that you don't have masters.

Also your goal is a good goal.

The first one not the $10 one.

That's great! So how do you get this masters? My impression is - it is given at random.
It seems random to us only because we don't know. I'm sure they use some sort of algorithm to determine who gets it and who doesn't. The only thing I would suggest is work on lots of different stuff and make sure you're submitting decent quality work. I've noticed that the people that pretty much only ever do surveys seem to get masters much less often. Aside from that, just be patient. I waited a couple years to get it and I had over 40k approved HITs by then. And I would probably be considered one of the lucky ones. A lot of people wait much, much longer.

Before I got masters, I did $60-$80 per day and had many $100 days (the good ole zoltar/google days). I was on all day and night,whenever I could get hits. Back then, there were a lot of requesters, quals were key, like major key. Since I got masters, I stopped turking for a year or so and now I do about $100 a week. I say all that to say, your daily goal is not determined by masters alone. I was hungry back then. I soaked up every bit of information I could. I even learned how to code ( a little bit) and I am not a technical person at all. But I was hungry.

Thank you for the advice! I have about ~20K HITS submitted and approved. I think I should wait a little longer, and hope to get lucky soon!

Thanks again for the advice!!
