First update on things from the article I have tried.

Surveys: they seem to be a lot of work (10-25 mins) for a few cents (20-80 cents) on average. Also your email is spammed to death, I'm talking several dozen the first day and it keeps growing and growing. The surveys, in my opinion, are a scam to get you to buy other stuff, although they offer a discount and money for taking and completing the survey so unless you're in the market for something, don't bother the email spamming is none stop, been opting out for days and the volume has slowed but still getting a few each day.

Ibotta: I think this one could be worth the while. You use the app to record what you purchase shopping (mostly groceries) and answer a question or watch a short video and then scan the barcode of the item and take a picture of your receipt and you can get anywhere from .20 cents to a $1 back into your account that you can redeem (not sure what as I didn't bother). I decided it wasn't for me as the list of grocery stores that Ibotta uses isn't any that I use. But for many that use, major chains including Walmart it could be easy money.

Stay tuned for a couple more that are too early to review.

I used send earnings yesterday and quickly fell for a scam with quibids
avoid quibids they charged me $60 for starting an account, I quickly got my refund.

I'll have to be careful as you should too.

those auction sites are total scammers. there was a guy who used to sell software so you could run one yourself...complete with autobidding bots so youd never lose an auction to a real bidder.
They also make it out like you bid pennies, but the bids are increased by one funny money penny(any made up unit would work), but each 'penny' really costs 50 cents to a dollar.
So if they auction a tv for 50.00, they just sold a tv for 2500-5000 dollars, and to win that bid you might have spent 100s to win a bid (or worse, lose and gain nothing). Thats right, you pay for bids, so every click you make you pay for.

Beezid starting adding disclaimers that they are actually a game, and your paying to play ie out click the other 'gamers' to win the 'prize' because the lawsuits fooding in. Ironic as this is a practice they ripped straight from free to play games, who also fleece people out of money. Real cash -->bundle of game 'currency'/gems/point#-->spend tons for reward not worth real cash.

Ive had success online from amazon affiliates and mturk, tho mturk is a lot of work for tiny amounts. I have talked to people online whove done etsy and fiverr with beer money level of success.

Avoid selling on Amazon. The refund policy favors the buyer by statement only. If a buyer says the unit does not work you as seller loose the money and the buyer does not need to send it back. Happened to me
