What has worked for some of you?

Nothing online, sorry to say. I earned my money in the brick and mortar world.

I do understand that there are online role playing games where you can earn rewards through play which you might then be able to sell for real money to other game players, either within the game play itself, or maybe through on-line auction sites like eBay. But you are going to have to research the details on your own.

Are you willing to invest a small amount to get started and how much spare time do you have?

Go to fiverr dot com. Check out the most popular services offered.

Match your skills/experience against this list.

Either start out listing gigs at fiverr or move directly to setting up your own site with WordPress (dot org not dot com) that sells your services at a higher price. If you set up your own site, start with accepting payment by PayPal. You can get your own CC merchant account later.

Remember that the market determines what you sell more than personal interests. For example, if you like writing poetry in 17th Century French, there’s probably not enough customers out there to make it worth your time.

No offense, but you are looking to make money in an area where you admit to having low skills. That doesn’t usually work out well.

I would settle for the boring data entry type online job if I could find a website or a small bunch of website that were known to outsource work to semi-professionals with unremarkable (but adequate) typing skills. I don't have Photoshop experience. I know I need it. I've tried taking computer classes before at evening classes for adults. I usually get so bored I can't stand being in the class for another nanosecond. I wait for the next coffee break, go straight to my car and drive off the school parking lot. I drive off, happy that as an adult, I can go if I damn well want to go. Still I do need to update my skills. My math needs sharpening as well.

You admit you have no on line skills and refuse to stay in class to learn them, try this...

Check out Alpine Access.

https://www.alpineaccess.com/

It’s call center jobs where the employees work from home. When I was researching this they contracted out to Focus On The Family and other “real” organizations and companies, including some government departments. It was rated as 100% legitimate by companies who check out these things. When I was looking, around 2008-9, they offered benefits. Rules are/were strict about background noise in the home (kids crying, doorbells, etc.), the best computer/headset equipment, etc. Basically, you’re working a real job, but at home.

Now I notice that there’s a “Sykes” name added to the site. Not sure how things are now, but it looked great back when I was interested.

I’ve done the Amazon Affiliate program, Cafepress, and ebay.

The first two I never made any more than a bit of pocket change. Ebay is the only place where I’ve been really able to supplement the income.

One thing I could advise is really honestly assess what are your strengths and limitations and look for opportunities to can make up for what you lack and can maximize your talents. For example, I like discovering and creating new products but I’m abysmal at selling/marketing/promotion. So any sites I’ve been on where I have to draw my *own* traffic have been a miserable failure. Ebay works well for non-sales oriented people because they bring the customer to you. You pay for that of course with higher fees, but everything’s a tradeoff.

You could do simple article writing. Pays around $1 per 100 words, but that is for everything from rewriting articles, writing commentary on news events or generating ad copy.

My advice, get a kayak....and when you are paddling......I guarantee, you'll have no cares or worries.

You could start a leftwing activist group and scam leftists out of their money.
