If I was starving and desperate from money I'd get off the internet and work more 
That is what we need work, we should not relly too much on what we earn here infront of the computer because this must be just an extra income.
And even the bitcoin, you should not relai on that, work in real world will make your problem solve.
I get the same problem, desperate when not having a job and have no money. Finally I can get money from the internet, I do not consider this as an extra income. but I make this as a main job. because it has given me a lot of money is more than just working in the real world. the point is you don't have to work in the real world to solve the problem, as long as you can earn an income from the internet and can grow it, it will not be a problem.
That's true that you can make good amount of money from internet but you should make sure that you are getting paid on time but may be sometimes you need to wait for certain amount of time to get paid so in that case if you need money desperately then it won't help you out as you need hard cash in hands when you are stuck into that situation.
that situation indeed it sometimes can be a big problem when we are in need of money. but I have a saving money, and my revenue not only from the signature campaign, some like trade and other matters. so far I've never get such situations. so my advice if you are looking for money from the internet, not only has 1 source, even outside of bitcoin is also still a lot of ways to earn money
