DISCLAIMER
Some people have objected to this monthly post for various reasons. So Im starting with this disclaimer. I do this full time. Its technically not beermoney for me. So this is NOT typical of most people. But it does show each month what programs are paying and whats working. And it also shows that those that are unemployed, disabled or have other special circumstances, who may come across this subreddit, that extra money can be made with some time and effort and a little investment.

FAQ
I'm in need of extra money. Should I persue doing some of this?
Yes and no. There is obviously money to be made. But there are drawbacks. Mturk (there are alternatives but not usually as lucrative) may not accept you (wont accept if outside US), Earnings may be low on programs like EH and other stuff can be a grind. Mobile based earnings means needing devices and takes money and time. I dont want anyone to believe they can sit down tomorrow and be making $2000 next month.
I live outside the USA. How can I earn?
Unfortunately most of the stuff I do is either USA only or US/UK/CA/AU. So its hard for me to advise whats available to people outside of those areas. If you live outside those 4 countries I really dont have advice for you. And I dont have much advice for even outside the USA.
How Much Time do you spend with this?
Its Hard to quantify. I am in front of a computer ALOT but its not always focused on making money. I have games I play and have scripts that watch for HITs ON Mturk so if something pops thats good I switch over. Plus Im often doing multiple things at once. That said.. there are people who make more then me with less time. Im actually very inefficient.
Will you give me advice or help me get started?
Yes.. but not this month. Mturk changed the whole layout and workings of the site a couple weeks back. A lot of scripts got broke. I havent gotten a good new system down yet. And Im redoing my entire phone and PC setup. Ill be back and ready to help in a couple weeks
How do you make so much on Mturk. Can you give me any hints?
Yes but next month. Im still working on perfecting a new setup after Mturk changed everything
Why dont you get a real job?
Health issues.. and I can nap at 1PM.. and I dont have a boss looking over my shoulder... and I can work naked (I dont.. or do I....)
Whats your Device setup?
This is also in a state of flux. Ill be adjusting and ready to chat about that in a few weeks
OMG! Your electric bill must be a bajillion dollars. Is it even worth it?
My entire power bill was just a bit more then what I earned from Earnhoney this month. And that was with a central AC running almost 24-7. People way overestimate the power this stuff takes. A typical cell phone costs a couple dollars a YEAR to charge. My main laptop uses about 21 kWh a month being on 24-7. That costs me less then $2 in a month.
How much data/bandwidth do you use?
About 4.4 TERRAbytes in Oct.
You must have a ton of referrals to make that much!
My total includes about $5 from referral earnings.
OMG! You must cheat somehow to make so much!
I do nothing outside the TOS of any of the programs. I consider this income to be a blessing and wouldnt do anything to jeopardize that. Plus cheating just kills programs and defrauds the companies that are allowing me to make this income.
Do you have to pay taxes on all of this
Yes on most of it. There are some exceptions but the majority of this income is taxable. Most of these companies dont issue 1099s but that doesnt mean you dont have to pay taxes. Please consult a tax professional if you have questions on how to handle taxes on "beermoney" income
