Turn $500 into $5000 With Penny Stocks

UPDATE JULY 2015
"It has come to my attention that Turn $500 into $5000 With Penny Stocks is the most popular post on this website, Teens With Money. While I did at one time turn $500 into $5000 on a single penny stock nearly 5 years ago, it was incredibly lucky and I don't recommend gambling your money like I did. The stock (KEYP) was a scam and has since dropped to $0.03 from its 2011 high of $4.83. I was very lucky as I took my profits and wasn't too greedy. $500 is not enough for an initial investment, and most investment experts would recommend a minimum of $2000 to begin investing in todays highly volatile markets. However with that all said, I still stand by the second part of this article as it contains some great information for teens looking to make money in the stock market. Good luck, be smart and thanks for reading!"- John Cookster

Original article:
Have you grown sick of your job while working so much for so little money? Believe me, the last thing I would want to do right now is to have a 9-5 job, busting my behind to make minimum wage. Granted, any money is better than no money, but I'm not looking to make any money...I'm looking to make a lot of money.

I know that kinda sounds like I'm an arrogant person, but hey call me what you want. I know how to make a lot of money online and I'm only a teenager. Recently, I turned 18 and got involved in penny stocks (aka stocks under $1.00) and eventually larger stocks through a friend. He told me about a sub penny stock with a new CEO that had completely changed the direction of the company. The sky was the limit and their stock price was about to sky rocket. I trusted my friend, opened a brokerage account and bought $500 worth of shares in this company.

Fast forward 1 week. I had just bought myself $1000 worth of brand spankin' new clothes. The share price rose over 1000% and i had turned my initial small investment into a large sum of cash. I was ecstatic and couldn't believe that at my age, a mere freshmen in college, I had just made so much money in 1 week. Naturally, I did what any stupid teenager would do. Without doing any research I dropped $1000 into a another company. Within 2 days the share price had dropped 60% and I had lost $600. I had gone from being on top of the world to being scared to spend a dime in a matter of days.

Since that drastic turn around about 2 months ago I have made another $4500 in the stock market. I began reading up on chart trends, company statistics and industry news. All factors that affect the price of a share. I educated myself and although I have had some tough losses, I have overall made a large amount of money through stocks.

BUT BE CAREFUL. Stocks are extremely risky. Plain and simple. Especially penny stocks! If you aren't willing to take some risk then you probably won't make yourself any money. Don't be a stupid teenager. I know I was at first!

Penny stocks can make you filthy rich, but can also cause you to lose all of your money. Before you decide to invest in a penny stock realize that they are risky because of:

• Lack of available information about the stock
• Lack of minimum standards to cushion investors
• Lack of stock history due to a company's new start

A penny stock can jump 400% in one day and seem like the next Apple. However it can drop 100% just as fast. Just make you that if you do decide to play penny stocks that you are constantly watching the share price and doing your DD on the company. They are hard to play as adults, let alone as a teen. However, I feel that as long as you do your homework then you aren't taking a risk, you are just taking advantage of a great investment opportunity.

Before you decide to go blow all of your money on some company, I suggest that if you are legitimately interested in stocks then you talk to your parents. I'm sure that your dad can offer you some great advice and would point you in the right direction to start. If not, the internet is your friend. Endless amount of free information will get you off to a good start! Good luck everyone!

Different Ways for Teens to Make Money Online

While online survey sites remain the best way for teens to make money online, there are many other options to keep in mind during your ventures. Here is a list of 5 other possibilities that you can use to get started on today.

1.) EBAY - There are thousands of dollars to be made on Ebay if you put the time in. A
n account is free and you can begin selling your items today. In fact, over the past month or so I have been selling old video games, clothes and other various items laying around my room and have already accumulated $870. It really is a great opportunity which is why many adults make their living by selling things via Ebay. Just make sure that you are a reliable seller and be ready to communicate with the buyers about your items.

2.) Blogging - Have a hobby or interest? Write about it. For example, I have several friends that run a big gaming blog and pull in thousands of dollars a month via Adsense. At first, they got few visitors , but as they continued to write quality content more readers began to show up. By simply writing about something that they enjoyed, they were able to start up a relatively cheap blog and now make upwards of $5000 a month. By posting google adsense ads on the blog, visitors click on the ads and they are paid a commission for each click.

3.) Mechanical Turk - Until recently I had no idea what Mturk was. However, after checking it out and using it for a couple weeks I have been pleasantly surprised. Simply put, Mechanical Turk is a service offered by amazon.com that allows you complete small tasks for a compensation. For example, you may be shown a picture and told to describe it in 10 words for $0.10. Now this may not seem like a lot but after doing it for a while you can make a steady income. Also, there are much higher payouts like writing a 1000 word article for someone for $15. There is a good amount of money to be made on Mturk if you put the time in.

4.) Write an E-book - A simple and fun way to make money is to write an e-book and sell it online. Consider yourself an expert on something? Put your thoughts down on paper and you will be surprised at the amount of people interested in what you have to say. E-books can be about anything, so don't think that just because your a teen people won't want to read what you have to say. When your finished you can offer your book to people on forums, Facebook, etc. and charge a price that you think is reasonable.

5.) Youtube - Youtube is an amazing way to earn great money online. Creating an account is completely free and like blogging, you can place adsense ads on your videos. Thousands of videos on Youtube have millions of views, so just imagine the profit that can be made. If you create a channel and upload funny, unique, informative, interesting videos you can quickly grow your view count on your videos and be well on your way to earning great money. However, just know that just because you make a video, that doesn't mean that people will watch it. It has to be engaging and make sure to leave the viewer wanting more so they will come back and eventually tell others about your channel.

Combine what works for you

Now you don't just have to try one of these methods. If you combine a couple of them you can be on your way to earning good money online as a teen. Begin testing what works for you and what yields you the highest profit and stick with that. Good luck everyone! Thanks for reading.

Is Cashcrate a scam?

Lately I have been hearing a lot of people online calling the website Cashcrate a scam. And no matter how hard I try to convince them otherwise they still seem to think that it is a waste of time. Waste of time? I have been making money like this each and every month over the past 2 years....

$517.83

One of the main reasons that people think that CashCrate is a scam is that for some reason people think that they are just giving out money for free. Trust me, the money they give out isn't free, you are working for it just like any other job. Nothing in life is free and I love the people that think surveys sites just give out "free money".

The direct deposit statement I posted above is money straight from CashCrate that goes directly into my bank account every week. Now that money certainly isn't "free" and I had to work pretty hard to get that kind of money. Now in order to get started you need to create a unique blog/website like I have stated so many times in previous posts. As a teen I know it can seem pretty intimidating to go out and purchase your own url, but don't worry. There are many free blogging platforms that are extremely easy to set up and use. Make sure that your blog is unique and has well written content. There are thousands of websites out there promoting CashCrate so you have to make sure that yours sticks out from the crowd.

All in all, Cashcrate certainly is not a scam. It is a real company that has real members like me. They have paid out over 4 million dollars since they started back in 2006. I have received thousands of real dollars from them over the past 2 years. Now 99% of you reading this will probably sign up, maybe complete an offer and call it quits. Be that 1%!!! If you actually read the previous content I have written and stick to my advice you will be well on your way to earning money online as a teen.

Happy New Year Everyone!

Teens Use SwagBucks To Make Money Online

Hey everyone,

Christmas is fast approaching us all and as a teen I know how difficult it can be to afford presents for all of your loved ones. Putting together enough cash to afford some nice presents can be tough and usually forces you to return cans, or hunt for loose change throughout your house. Instead of doing that why don't you play games and search for things on a search engine for money? Sounds cool right?

I recently came across a survey site called SwagBucks. Now if there was a king of survey sites, SwagBucks would be it. As of November 2011 it was one of the top 100 websites visited annually in the United States. With over 4 million members it boasts an amazing reputation and definitely caught my eye. I went straight ahead and signed up for it. Wow am I glad I did. Swagbucks isn't just a survey site, it is a search engine, you can watch videos, play games, trade in old electronics, and more, all for points called Swagbucks. But, by far the coolest feature I found on the site was that you could earn money by simply searching. Instead of using google, I use the SwagBucks search engine and have earned about $40.....by searching for everyday things, its basically free money.

With these Swagbucks you can trade them in for a wide variety of prizes, including everything from GPS systems to memorabilia to gift cards to actual cash via PayPal.

Overall, I really have enjoyed my experience with SwagBucks thus far. I already earned a $50 Amazon gift card and am well on my way towards another one. It is definitely going to help me during the holiday season this year and I am glad I found out about it. I suggest you at least check it out, you won't be disappointed.

Join SwagBucks.

Happy Holidays Everyone!

Keywords Are Key

Stop Being Lazy

How To get Backlinks

Blogging is Key to Getting Referrals

Article Marketing Works

How to get traffic to your website? That is the common question that has plagued many internet marketers for years. Some websites magically get thousands of visitors a day while others struggle to get 5, let alone 1000. There are many services you can pay to use that will send related traffic to your website, but that usually costs a good amount of money, money that I don’t have. See, you’re probably like me, broke and looking to find the most bang for your buck with the smallest amount of effort. However, with today’s internet there are nerds that are working crazy amounts of hours on SEO to better get a website seen. Now I don’t know about you, but I don’t have that much time to work on making money online. If only there was a way to get traffic without that much time or exertion…

I can tell you though with certainty that one of the best methods to gain backlinks and traffic to your website remains to be article marketing. It relatively takes a small amount of your effort and best of all it’s free. Submitting articles is a proven method of advertising, which builds the credibility, brand, search engine ranking, traffic, and long-term growth and stability of your business. Now sure it may be boring and a little repetitive, but even if you submit 2 unique articles a week to ezinearticles or goarticles, then that’s only about an hour a week. If those articles are well written and have good keywords then there are two articles that have a high possibility of being on page 1 of google for those keywords. That means more traffic for you.

By linking your websites URL in the authors box, you are gaining a backlink from that link and traffic from those who click on it. The more high quality backlinks you have coming to your site from other sites will determine how relevant your site is to search engines and people. It’s a win-win situation.

A great ebook that describes how you can utilize article marketing to its highest potential is The Tireless Traffic Technique. It is fairly inexpensive and gave me a lot of good insight into a topic that I knew little about. Read it, continue to educate yourself and make some money.
