If you just started, then it takes awhile to get the really great assignments. I had played with this in one of my earlier retirement periods, as I read in the WSJ about making up to $75k per year, plus knew someone that did the really high end stuff: cruises, longer resort and luxury hotel stays, high end restaurants, etc. So, it seemed to fit my lifestyle. I did a few one to two night stays, and it's a lot of work. Plus you need to write well and in detail. Also, my younger son ( a minor at the time) did checks for underage cigarette purchases, and I needed to take him around for those.
