I'm from Asia... I earn less than $1000 a month, but that doesn't mean that I have a poor life here since it is already a fine salary...I'm sure each of us has different answer... The poll also doesn't mean that when you earn smaller than $1000 you have a difficulty in surviving day to day, compared to those who earn more than that... It all depends on where you live and the cost of living there...  Smiley

I think the poll was better to have more answers <200 <500 <1000 because in some countries $1000 is really a high income within a month while in some countries it isn't enough even to pay the rental. When are going to be published the results from these polls?
I agree with your point, in my country if you earn $200 you are an average earner. Most of these things depend on the standard of living in someone's country. So to get better result, it is better to differentiate the options into smaller range

I agree with the other: this poll is useless.
Income differs a lot from country to country. The cost of living differs a lot again.
Also the ones making the poll seem not to think out of the box: OP, if you would earn 10k, 15$ every month, would you spend your time on this forum, really?!

Are you asking how much I earn at my job or what I earn using my bitcoin?

I think the question is very unprofessional. I guess none of the member here will not get mad at me. I said it because in my side its very personal, like example; I'm so stupid if I said I earn 10btc every month. I'm just giving an open door for the scammer or hacker if I do that. Probably, earner is enough to know what the other's know about our profit.

Maybe you should just redo it already and lock this one, so that you can get the real results of your survey. Right now almost everybody is placing their vote on to $1,000 and up. It would better reflect the true state of the people in the forum. It's nice to have this kind of study, this would be useful for those people that create services for the community.

You are right, this poll should be redone. And maybe next time should be done with lower interval like 500$. In our country 500$ is way more than the minimum wage but considering 1st world country have higher wages, it is a good interval to balance 3rd and 1st world country income. Maybe on the next poll we will have a better and precise results.

I am also earning below 1000$. But to be more precise it is just a bit above 500$. And that is already coming from multiple source of income.You need to be in a managerial level and above to be able to earn more than 1000$ in our country.

I am living in a third world country where you only need around $500 to live like a rich person. My salary is around $1000 per month and I am happy about that since I still have a small amount of money to use after buying daily needs. I understand that if I live in US or EU religion, I probably can not live with $1000 so that's why I feel pleasure with my income and where I am living now

My combined income from my day job and side jobs is less than $1000. But it's just fine since I am living in Asia where my daily cost of living is also small and since I am single, oh well, my income is just fine to me. Oh, speaking of single, I haven't seen a poll that asks whether we are single or a family guy.. Anyway, hope to see the result of this polls written. I am sure that it will be a good one.  Smiley

Yes, certainly I am an bitcoin earner and also a trader. Even though I don't want to disclose my exact bitcoin earning per month, but it is definitely less than 1000 USD. Because I am a business consultant by profession and I have very limited time for trading.

I also earn little through various paid forum posting which eats up most of my free time. I have goal to save all the bitcoin for another 5-7 years, then I will sell all to buy something big.

Sadly, my income is less than $1000, or less than $200. I do not have a fixed job, so the source of income is very unstable, do signature campaign
, transactions, and the other is to help people write procedures.

Great points here. If I had an opportunity to do it again, I'd add another category below $1,000. Thanks for the feedback.

One question I have from those that are earning under $1,000 a month is how old are you? and where are you from? I think this may tell us something about the 65% who have responded that earn less than $1,000 monthly. And that may be obvious - younger people tend to earn less money, etc.

Have you filled out Poll #1 and #2 on age and location? If not, I'd be grateful if you did.

I think the poll was better to have more answers <200 <500 <1000 because in some countries $1000 is really a high income within a month while in some countries it isn't enough even to pay the rental. When are going to be published the results from these polls?

Yes upon seeing that the choices in the poll is lack of those lower amount. That's what I want to suggest also, try to add some choices as most of us here are not earning higher than $1,000. And it's going to be not sure if you are just going to make it <$1,000 you must be specific for it so that many can participate. Actually I'm earning less than $1,000 combining my monthly salary, trading profit and other source of income.

Citizens of 1st world countries often forgets that McDonald's minimal wage is not something people can earn easily in every place on earth.
More options should be added to show how dire situation of some people is, after seeing preliminary results of this poll - poor people are attracted to BTC the most.

I profit mostly from my business in the real world. I have laundry business and drinking water supplier. Business is good in based from my previous accounting of it. I also try my best to invest into bitcoins. Right now, I am finding ways to have people pay us in bitcoins for a smoother process of payment and remove the cash my workers handle and avoid tI profit mostly from my business in the real world.

I make around 160$ per month with current price which is about 900$. It's like minimal salary here, so I'm pretty satisfied with that earnings  Cheesy

The realization you speak of can be discouraging...but it doesn't have to be. You can start saving at any time and it doesn't have to be some grand amount, saving one dollar, euro, yuan, etc. is enough to get you moving toward larger goals. The biggest factor that influences success in saving money is changing your habits to actually set aside the money.

As for the poll, have you seen the bitcoin wealth poll we're also managing? We'd love to get your response on that one, here's the link: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitcoin-user-poll-4-wealth-how-big-is-yourerrrbitcoin-stash-1752664

Sadly I don't earn more than $1,000 even if I combine my earnings in bitcoins, freebies/giveaways and adding my salary in real life. That's so sad to think about. Then expenses are about $800 a month. Paying for rent, electricity, water, internet, and food. Some more payments for some other stuff. I don't really save anything. Now you made me realize I don't save too much.

My monthly income is around $300. Most of my income is from trading. I have invested in 3 Altcoins. I get a little from signature campaign.Yet, im struggling to meet my day to day expenses.I had an idea of investing in cloud mining schemes to get a passive income, but since lots of them turn to be scams nowadays,so i dropped that idea.Now, i have planned to invest in ICO so that i could gain more when its price increases.
