I just wanted to update and thank everyone for their advice, I have been really busy with my pursuits and making some good progress. While only a few panned out so far, I am still optimistic. I really need to find some more easy money like
www.progressingreward.com, etc, with open ended applications. Most of the others have been such a HASSLE to fill out/apply and then don't let me in.
These responses gave me some much needed insight here.
