I see a lot of people are eager to get their nodes up and running are they earning from this or are they trying to secure the network more?

I don't think you gain anything from running a full node but it does make the network transactions more secure. |

If you run the core 24/7 then you will not have to wait the sync process every time you want spend your money

It`s a way how to support bitcoin to be more secure. I do not think there is any earning from running it.

you can gain something if you are part of the tor node, but the reward is very low

It just makes the network more strong, wish it was POS all these years running it as full node.  |

You contribute to the future of money history. Quite a nice reward in itself, no?  |

Neither you do when using a lightweight client. The real benefit of running the core client is securing the network, as others have already said. |
An economy based on endless growth is unsustainable.

You can run Electrum or something and do not wait. The thing is the safest way if you are paranoid, I think, to store your Bitcoin (and dont want to go 100% offline) is Bitcoin-qt because you know you have an up to date blockchain locally. |

Nada, zilch, no dinero, nothing. NO gain whatsover.
Doesn't make sense for the average bitcoiner to run a node, unless they're already hosting servers, co-lo'ed, or have VPS they are already paying for.
As for securing the network, there is plenty of computing power securing the network already. Everybody mining is securing the network, everyone running Bitcoin core is securing the network...Joe home PC user not running a node won't make an ounce of difference in the grand scheme of things.

People running nodes do not earn anything,they are securing the Bitcoin network. But,if you run a node for electrum server,you can ask for donations/tips in the console which users can see. Example: https://i.imgur.com/aKwscdl.png |
