This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEA curriculum. Completing this BB is part of getting the sand badge in Commerce.

Perform some sort of labor over the internet and get paid at least $60.

Here is a list of some ideas of things you can do for money over the internet, sometimes called Agile work.
Wondering what is Agile work? Have a look here.

To get certified for this BB, post the following:
  - A description of your labor
  - A picture of proof that the labor was done over the internet
  - A picture of proof it made you at least $60 (you can smudge the personal info, as long as it is identifiable as yours)

If I have a job at call center that I do from my laptop remotely, would this count?
If I get paid in giftcards for using an online forum on a monthly basis, would this count?

The first one would for sure, the second one I'm not sure.  Mainly because the point is to show Otis that you can make money without leaving the homestead.  Earning gift cards may or may not be the same thing as cold hard cash.

I currently have a work from home job on the computer and I can use my paycheck to show I've earned more than $60. I'm just not sure how to prove my work was done over the internet. Any advice on what kind of proof to provide?
 
No. No. No. No. Changed my mind. Wanna come down. To see this tiny ad:
