    As topic says, if you don't just say how much you make per month on the internet, I want to get a good idea of the earnings you can attain.

    Earnings are infinite! Unfortunately, the great majority who try to earn online lack the knowledge and skill it takes to make big earnings, and that is why they fail.

    Yes, as the Jim already stated that, one must posses the skills. Normal skill cant do better, one require to be ABNORMAL here :). Earnings are infinite, the harder you work the BIG AMOUNT $$$ you have. what i think personally is if you have the skill and know how to market that properly you always WIN and have smile; smile with $$$$$. but this is to mention here, Good Amount comes only and only with HARD WORK, there is no short cut. best of luck for all DP members for $$$$!!!

    Thanks for posting guys but I'm looking for realistic amounts, not inspirational posts like "work hard and you can achieve infinite earnings.." So if you could just tell me how much you earn per month would be fine.

    I'd like to emphasize that one such skill is persistence and another one is determination. If you are lazy or you tend to procrastinate, forget about it.

    Why would people want to post what they earn to a stranger? Do you take medication? if so what kind and whats it used for?

    Well why not? I'm just asking people here for the numbers not how they're doing and what their niche is. And no I do not take medication but clearly you do.

    Easily $2000 to $5000...and even more if you know what you are doing.

    Obviously people are making money on the internet or there wouldnt be forums like this? So if you dont want to know the niche or anything apart from what they earn - whats the point? what valid info are you going to get from it? I am on medication - I have asthma - your point?

    Blazer is a respected member of DP and is genuinely interested in what is realistically possible to make on the internet. As I've only just started out trying to make money on the internet, I'd say I've only made around $20 - $30 US in 1 and a bit months.

    I dont think its necessarily a skill, it could be an idea and you are able to manage it and people with funding! but yes I do make a living off of the internet

    What do you mean under internet income? Affilate or SEO company?
    If you do SEO around 15000 dollars, but I know people who have 50.000 per month. You can make money as much as you want just think and work hard.
    Internet income has never been easy. My advice is do not think about money just be enjoy doing your job and money come to you once

    I have been pulling in online income from the forums for the last 2 years and have managed to grab in profit as high as $180 under 2hrs :)

    You may want to consider Forum Entrepreneur as an option.
    Just to illustrate a month's earnings generated from the forums alone:

    Selling 7 new websites: $1000 approx.
    Outsource forum services: $1,000 to $1,500 approx.
    Forum signatures: $100 to $200 approx.

    It fluctuates depending on how much time are you willing to put in. I still have a full-time job running.

    I work for a company that does all it's business online. I make about 40k, and I'm only 21, no college. I'm the webmaster, so pretty much I make sure we run well. However it's also adult related, so many wouldn't want to do that.

    14K a month on average here. Quit my day job 3 years ago and have never looked back. My business partner and I laugh because it doesn't FEEL like we have worked a single day in the last 3 years. In reality we put in some insane hours, but we enjoy what we do so it doesn't feel like work.
