Surveys:
This one is sensitive to a lot of people. But in my experience this is not very lucrative. Most companies paying you to take surveys will either give you points that you redeem for prizes, or a very small cash sum. For example, you take 15 minutes to fill out a survey to get paid 10 cents, or you get 500 points(only problem is the cheapest prize is a mini flashlight for 9,500,000,000 points and then you pay shipping and handling of $15). There are others offering 2-20 dollars per survey. Unfortunately they always seem to be looking for a very specific targeted group of people(This survey is for Asian women 19-20 who live in Antarctica and love wearing bikinis), SORRY YOU DO NOT QUALIFY.

Pyramid Schemes:
This subject is a little touchy, even to me. I am a network marketer and involved in several MLMs. I want to teach you to recognize a Pyramid Scheme. We have all seen the Chain letters where they tell you send $5 to each name on the list and add your name to the bottom and mail it to everyone you have ever walked by in your life. This happens to be Illegal in the United States. A pyramid scheme will not offer any product or service for your money, thus making it illegal. There are many Multi Level Marketing systems you can find on line (often they look very similar to pyramid schemes because of their payment structure). The BIG thing to watch is what product they offer and why would you buy it! The other major thing is to research the company and its founders, so that you have a good idea as to what they are all about.

As you can see these businesses are not quite what they seem in the ads we read. I hope that understanding how some of them work will save you some time and money. I would also like to add that there are exceptions to every rule. Someone somewhere has a great business doing these very things, but they are the exception not the rule. Now lets go find some great opportunities to work from home together. Remember the fastest way to get what you want is to help others achieve it with you!
