Mechanical Turk is certainly not a means of supporting ones self, but for me has become a fun little game I like to play each day to earn a little money and a break from the monotony of my day. I’m a stay at home mom of 3 little girls, have a self-employed husband and I too have a small out of the house business. Instead of spending my few free moments each day playing pointless online video games I go to Amazon Mechanical Turk, do hits and love it when I reach $10 so I can transfer it to our checking account. It’s simple, fun and I never even have to leave my house. I LOVE this site!
