The sad reality of money-making, get up off your ass - splunk - Aug 4, 2014
warning: I put very little time into this thread, so don't call me out for being LQ.
I'm gonna tell you guys the truth about money-making. Simply because I've been through EVERYTHING. When I say everything, I literally mean I have tried over 500 different methods to make money. I've bought 7 ebooks in my lifetime on HF. Now, I'm not bashing ebook sellers- but I've made a whopping 0$ from them.
The truth of the matter is, think outside of the box to make some money. Chances are, if an ebook thread claims to make you 200-300$ a day, and he's selling it for 10$, and the thread has like 80 pages of posts, it won't work.
Here is my rationale:
When you make money online, someone has to be paying you. Think of it that way. If you want to sit on your ass, and make 200-300$ a day auto-pilot, with little setup, someone HAS to be paying you. Now tell me, why would the company want to payout for users like this? They aren't fucking retarded. Once in a blue moon, you will hit a lick and make money from someone's method, but you have to get in early.
Again, I'm not bashing e-book sales. I'm simply encouraging you all to think outside of the box. I've made more than enough online, and none of that has even been associated with HackForums. I just gave away one of my private methods for free over at the free giveaway section. I personally used it, and created it.
Get creative. Think, what service can I provide, that I would use? or, one that no other vendor sells.
Yes, I know this is common information, but I'm really urging you guys to step it up. Don't look around all day for an "auto-pilot" method that supposedly gets you rich. You can get a little sneaky with your money-making methods, but don't cut corners. You can't cheat your way through everything. The key is to CREATE buyers, or to provide to people, while at the same time providing for yourself. For example, I had a connect fronting me Moneypak codes at 50% each, I re-sold on another forum for 75%. It was decent, but I made 325$ a day doing it. I helped myself, and helped the buyers. We both made money.
I'm not telling you to go get connects like that, that was simply an example. Go somewhere else, find something that would be original HERE.
TL;DR: a bunch of common info, and me talking out of my ass, once again

This...I highly vouch for, I have brought one ebook, never again, I mean the method actually kinda would work. .if I had the time and skills, just it was not for me.
Most methods here you will find that they aren't suitable for you.

I highly agree with this. People here need a wakeup call. But, ewhoring in my experience is a good way to earn money.

Those do work, and are proven to work. It's just up to you what to do with it. :) 🤝

Just when I thought a HQ thread without mentioning eBooks. Are you jealous of some sort since you arent able to market one or what?( general question to HF individuals ). Either way theres really no need for bringing that up, you can create a thread without it, also giving out couple of tips wouldnt hurt either, in the end you tried "500" methods, I'm sure you can think of one to suggest to readers instead of just ranting and pointing out the obvious. No offence though its just people find strange ways to crave for attention.

I didn't mean for you to take it the wrong way. I'm not "craving" for attention.
I'm simply saying, you have to think outside the box.
I have made money out of the weirdest ways, some unique methods that you'll simply never find on HackForums. For example, I would photoshop, and html edit fake gossip stories and sell them to media companies for 500-1500$ a pop. It was the easiest money in the world, and simply took a little thinking.

If you didnt want people to take it the wrong way maybe you should've edited it on time and not be like bunch of others where each monetizing discussion turns into talk about eBooks instead of actually sharing some tips for newbies which doesnt even have to be much time-consuming just general advices.
And I gotta congratulate you on that, honestly I myself never thought of doing anything remotely similar, and what happened once they found out? Or they didnt care at all, news is what sells the papers so they couldnt care less if it's fake or not.

Couldn't agree with this more. I've personally made my living on xbox since i was 13 sitting at home and selling services.

Most of -REP on HF comes from "pretending online entrepreneurs" that never made a penny online (begging for clicks on adfly links, begging for donation, "Have 2$ PP, hit me with investment", ebook sellers whos only profit is ebook selling ......).
People here are wasting so much time, last 2 pages of Cryptocurrency section are flooded with Stellar even if it's already not profitable, people spamming for few cent referrals.
There's loads of quality content on HF and there's huge amount of HQ members really making decent income online, sharing knowledge, making deals.
But it's hard to find quality in enviroment flooded by toddlers that leaked from gaming section into money section, toddlers trying to "come out of HF crowd" by pretending instead of working their ass off, learning and finally achieving something.

That is extremely intelligent insight right there. There is definitely good content here on this forum, that can be lucrative for everyone, you just need to know what to look for, and how to utilize it to fit your needs.

I make money through selling Dota 2 items, buy shit cheap and sell it expensive. There are couriers that are bugged atm and I'm waiting for them to be fixed, if they do the'll probably be $100 each and I got them for $2-$5 each.
Ads are a bullshit way to make money unless you're a popular streamer/youtuber.
