NO way?? WAY!
I have to admit....when I first read this newspaper article, I was
skeptical. I mean...I love Helium.
They are a legit way to earn from home - but wow, $5000 in 6 months?!
That's very inspiring.
According to the February 3, 2009 article...
|
"Helium (www.Helium.com),
the world's largest writing community, today announced record member
earnings. Among those sharing in the pool of thousands of dollars is
a former teacher from South Georgia. In just six months, recently
retired high school teacher Holle Abee has earned over $5,000 by
writing for Helium an average of one hour each day." |
Could you spare an hour a day if you could earn an average of $833 a
month? I'm thinking that sounds like a great idea. Especially with
everyone trying to curb expenses. The economy is tanking - so they keep
telling us - so what can we do? How can we stay at home and earn money?
The article goes on to quote the retired school teacher....
|
"Helium has been a real blessing for me," says Holle. "I've earned
some extra money and made some great new friends. It has also
allowed me to experiment with subjects outside my comfort zone."

Lets face it...
You're looking for a way to earn an income from home. Aren't we all?
There are so many options out there and so many scams. What's
real...what isn't real? What can I really do - what aren't I qualified
for. What costs money? What doesn't cost a dime? Trust me - I try and
decipher all of this every day. I'm no different than you are.
But one thing I have learned in over 8 years of researching work at
home....making money at home IS possible when you look in the right
places. Helium is exactly one of those "right" places.
If you've been desperately searching for something - just some way to
earn some cash from home. If you've got a decent computer....and you can
connect to the internet (if not from your own home.....maybe a local
cafe) - then
the opportunity is right there.
This is a work at home opportunity that's legit, and not hard.
We can all write.
If you're afraid of your grammar or spelling....most computers have
spell check. Some can even alert you of run-on sentences and more.
Start with a topic you enjoy or something you're knowledgeable about
already. Get a feel for it. See how others craft their articles.
Read the guidelines and follow them.
Then see what happens. There just might be a writer in you and you
didn't even know it.And you may well be on your way to being a PUBLISHED
and PAID writer at that!
Although Helium has compensated writers for their participation
since its inception, last fall it became the first writing website
to offer upfront payments for all new articles being written by
starred writers. This change to Helium`s Terms of Service increased
member earnings significantly, as well as further elevating the
quality of content on the site.
In addition to receiving upfront payments and shares from ad
revenue, writers can win cash prizes from Helium`s weekly writing
contests and have their work published by one of the many publishing
partners in Helium`s Freelance Writing Marketplace.
Helium writers also have the ability to win journalism awards for
the Pulitzer Center, the Knight Center for International Media,
OneWorld, Sunshine Week, and several other organizations.
Additionally, The National Press Club extends application offers to
all of Helium`s 5 star writers.
