Providing most of that demographic info wouldn't bother me much if I were getting paid to take surveys, but it's good to know from the start that one might be asked about all that.
For gender, I'd likely choose the one I'm generally seen as. The male/female question often irks people like me though; that's why I pointed it out in my post. Especially as the answer might be used to filter which surveys one is presented with, which might be additionally irksome.
I'd be uncomfortable giving out my street address and phone number though, unless it were solely for the purpose of sending me something, and guaranteed not to be used for marketing. Do they usually ask those questions up front, or at the end of the survey? Is providing that info generally optional or required, when it is asked?
Something I was wondering from your post is, when you take everything into consideration, about how much money per hour have you been making? You listed the $ you earned, but do you have an idea of how many hours total you spent each month to get that money?
I'm not likely to be using the site myself, as I've got a full time job. But some other people on my list may be interested.
