The internet is a vast place with so much information. Just as in the so-called “real-world” there are jobs for those with a multitude of varied interests, the same is true for the internet. Those who possess any number of skills can find paid work online so long as they know where and how to get it.
There are two main impediments to earning money online: an inability to find work, and personal motivation. As noted above, the internet is a vast resource. Imagine going to a site like Google to find something. With no idea what this “something” is, the internet is more overwhelming and confusing, than useful. The same is true for trying to sift through all the muck to find something that will actually work for you.
