making money taking online surveys

marahmarie discusses their experience using Opinion Outpost in this post. If you need a little extra money and have the time and internet access, it sounds like a not-too-bad way to get some.

The sign up page requires you to choose whether you are either male or female.

Debating on adding this info to my post...some FYI for your readers

Most surveys also require that you choose whether you are male or female. In addition, if you don't like surveys asking potentially pokey-feeling demographic questions then taking them may not be for you.

Most surveys will ask for your:

--Gender
--Age
--Marital Status
--Race, and often also your ethnicity
--Location (usually a zip code)
--Total yearly income before taxes
--Education level
--Population density of area you live in (suburban, urban, rural)
--How many people live in your household, total
--How many, if any, children live in your household

Some surveys go even further, depending on what they are about, what they want or will do for you afterward (ie, send follow up surveys or free samples) or what they think they must know to ensure you can legally use whatever they are polling you on (ie, cigarettes, alcohol, political views, religion) by asking you for:

--How you identify sexually
--Your religion, if any
--Your political affiliations/primary political parry, if any
--The gender of any adults living with you, and your relationship status to them
--Your street address
--Your phone number
--Your email address

On matters of race it seems particularly trying for Hispanics as most surveys don't consider hailing from any particular Spanish speaking country as being of a Hispanic "race". If you don't identify as white, black, or another broadly accepted race, but feel very close to and identify most with your Hispanic roots, it seems it can be very trying to fill out the demographic sections of these surveys.
