How To Make Money Online In 2020
If you want to make money online in 2020 successfully, you have to avoid things like:
- Shady investments: Forex, bitcoins, ponzi schemes and any other schemes that won't guarantee you get your returns are risky. I remember loosing my money to the UltimateCycler.com trend back then in 2016, and since then I never involved myself in any shady investments.
Truly once bitten, twice shy!
- Too-true-to-be-true investments: How many times have you bumped into those landing pages promising you that they will turn in your first $3,000 in a month? Even on YouTube and other ad networks, they try earnestly yo get people invest in their stuff. I don't advise such, there's no place they share money online. A typical example is the Beeperbucks.com scam.
- Get paid to read news schemes: I'm not here to spoil your minds about them, but there're no guarantees such things wouldn't shut down anytime sooner. They make you share spammy links on your Facebook walls and still, send you off to referrals. They are more like a ponzi scheme, and without referring people, you rarely earn.
- Share links and get paid scams: Seriously, who shares money online? I once did those stuff sometime around 2015, and I confirmed they were scams. They request earnings button will either be a null link, or the landing pages will be black or blank. Some advanced ones will even ban you once you hit payout...scary!
- Never pay someone to get a job: Think first...! If they'd give me a job, why would they need me to pay? Forget about all these there competition's much and related bla bla bla, they are all to get your little hard earned and scarce money. No employer should ever need your money to get you a job, or else they are scam!

- Any other stuff you don't trust: Once you become suspicious of any stuff, the first you should do is a quick Google search. If the spam site is BeeperBucks.com, then you can search for 'BeeperBucks..com Scam'. Forget about the positive reviews, most times they could be staged and go for the negative ones. The truth lie in there. Once you hit a negative review, and another, and another, then you do not need Clifford to tell you to runnnn!

However, with a good earpiece or headphone, you can be a step ahead in the career and with fast delivery, turn in better reviews and more clients to yourself.
