Upwork has completely changed my life. About 2 years ago I was making $15 an hour. I've reached this goal in less than 2 years! No plans of slowing down at all!8mo ⋅ DocumentTight7190 ⋅ r/Upwork
$200k+ Goal Reached!!! Took me ~2 years to hit $100k, and only an additional 6 months to get to this point!1mo ⋅ DocumentTight7190 ⋅ r/Upwork

I was sitting in my room in 2020, working on a freehand sketch when my best friend told me I should start selling my work. 1 year later, I’m a happy illustrator at Upwork who never even expected to cross the 10k milestone.1yr ⋅ pro-caffeine ⋅ r/Upwork
Blatant advertising on Reddit disguised as funny stories. God knows how many of these are already active and people don't even realize it.2yr ⋅ Mind101 ⋅ r/Upwork
Well, apparently clients like this exist. Very nice guy, the original fee was just $125 too.1yr ⋅ bkessler853 ⋅ r/Upwork
My best week so far! I know there are some huge earners here, but for a fairly new freelance translator like me, this feels really good. I also quit a horrible job 5 months ago to go full-time on Upwork, so this has been a great boost for me.1yr ⋅ Adjudika ⋅ r/Upwork

A little bragging doesn’t hurt! Finally hit $100K in almost 2 years, hoping to do another $100K in 2022!1yr ⋅ You_pick_a_username ⋅ r/Upwork
This is my first time earning at least $2,000 within a month... (Next Wednesday it’ll be $2k+) ...It’s not much... BUT, it’s great to reflect on progress. The grind is frustrating and timely - but once you get going it gets better.7mo ⋅ LittleAnonyAccount ⋅ r/Upwork

This guy is threatening violence against freelancers who don't make him fully happy. This guy pays people 7 USD per hour on average and seems frustrated he isn't getting the quality he wants. I don't think people like this should be allowed on Upwork.1yr ⋅ JaredDadley ⋅ r/Upwork
