Surveys are useful but not Dependable
Everyone talks about how health care and computer science fields are the two biggest growing employers. Health care is clear in the educational requirements and level of necessary experience needed to join any given subdivision. To a point computer science is the same, having knowledge of software and troubleshooting techniques are required and a degree or certificate in the field is always a bonus. What most people seem to overlook is that computers are tools and it isn't necessary to have a degree or experience in the field to make money from them.
There are no 'get rich quick' schemes but there are websites which show you how to make a profit in the long run with little or no start up cost.

There is almost always a minimum requirement of accrued points or money earned to receive a payment or exchange points for prizes of course. Most sites advertise gift cards to sites such as Amazon and donations to a favorite charity like the American Cancer Association. There is no instant payout but a few minutes to an hour each day will add up overtime, but it is unlikely to ever be considered a dependable income.
Surveys provide feedback to companies and vendors about advertisements, products, and opinions on pricing. Questions often ask the survey taker to compare similar products from competitive companies such as Coca Cola and Pepsi. Survey topics may include food and drink, vehicles, electronics such as cell phones and computers, and most products found at wholesale retailers like Walmart. For companies surveys are an inexpensive way to reach a wide and diverse audience to gain feedback on the opinion of the general population in regards to their product.

Surveys are not to be seen as a reliable income but neither are they to be dismissed. While the impact of a single survey taker may be minor in the overall picture, in the long run detailed input can affect the style of a company and survey takers may gain a little cash in their pockets along the way to use for the holidays.
