It is great when people get paid for doing surveys. Usually those are well funded or they only need a small number of people filling out surveys. I had saved about $300 naively thinking that people would be motivated if I donate that money to a charity. But I need about 200 people to fill out my survey everyone would only get a little more than a buck. And after the study starts I can't change any of that anyway because it violates research integrity.

And quiz me and try to tell me what level of injury I was and so on ---Most were right on ! they were a great group of students and we had a blast all joking and having fun---I was glad I did it and was paid $60 bucks back then, when I had almost no income during my rehab of almost 4 months. The students told me they were so relieved I could joke and cut up since some were serious and bitter and made them feel scared and mizerable-----so it was a good experience for all. I have done both paid and free surveys, only do them if you want and most will let you skip questions you are uncomfortable with. > Dan H. C-6 St. Louis, Mo. Area
