I was just curious how long people have been on myLot? What about other online earning opportunity sites? I have only been on myLot for 3 years. I just received an email from one of the other sites that I belong to. It was a Happy Anniversary email. I have been with their site since June 1st, 1999. Wow, 10 years. That is probably the first site that I joined when I first started trying to earn an income online. I am amazed that I have been with one for that long. Actually, there are probably at least 2 that have been good to me all these years. I am glad to say that myLot has been great ever since I have been a member here as well. What about everyone else? Any long time membership stories? Even if it's not an online earnings site, please share!

Hi becnh83, and thank you for your response in this discussion. I hope you will be able to find time here on myLot to reach payout a lot sooner than by the end of the year. But if that is it, then so be it. At least you are finding some time to come here. I think for a lot of people, it is not about the money. Just somewhere to come and visit when they feel like it, and some time to chat with friends or seek out information. Thanks again and good evening!

I would be glad to answer any questions you may have about myLot, if possible. Just post them here, and either myself, or may be even another member who might see it in the discussion will be glad to help you. The members here on myLot have always been very friendly. I guess that is the main reason I keep coming back. I hope you will enjoy your time spent here on myLot and stay a member for a number of years as well. Good luck to you and WELCOME to myLot!

this time around for a little over a year. i had had an account before and then did not have any time at all to dedicate to posting so i deleted my account and then signed up again about a year or so later. i only have time for 3 posts per day but i need any venue i can to make extra money these days and it adds up after awhile so i put the money to good use.

Well, it sounds like you have it figured out mikeysmom. It is great to have a goal and to realize that every little bit helps. I am hoping for more online income, but in the meantime I continue to search for a traditional job. Thank you for your response in this discussion, and have a good evening!

i have only been a member here for one month and im truly enjoying my stay here so far.... have learned so many already not just in terms on life questions but also about money making. this is where i also learned about writing in keywords... yeah, it did helped me earned more. i have been in online earning for only 5 months, been a member to a lot of scam sites, but there were many sites where i have been paid. yours is really that long... wow too...

Thanks cbeee3. Four years, that's great. I think that joining a site and continuing to be a member are two different things. I think a lot of people have been members are really popular sites like mySpace for a long time. For me, the only sites I have been a member of for a number of years are income earning. My goal when I first signed up for the internet was to make enough money to pay for the cost of internet service. Now, my goal is to one day have a large portion of my income coming from the internet. I really enjoy computers and the freedom that is involved in working for yourself. Have a great day!

I have been here just over two years. MyLot was one of the first earning sites I joined at that time and it is one of the very few that I am still using. I have made so many friends her now that it has become a way of life and an online 'next' rather than an earning site for me. I think you and me gave been friends for a heck of a long time too. Are you still doing the earning sites that youwere doing when we met?

Yes, I'm sure you have hundreds of friends. If you received a notice every time that someone left a message, you would be swamped with emails. LOL Thanks again and have a great day!

Yes, you have been on my Friends List for quite a long time. I always recognize your screen name when I see it. I have continued to do a number of the paid earnings programs. The main ones that I have cut out are the ones that pay less than half a cent for emails read. I had to cut back, because I started to do a few other things that were paying more, so I dropped the lower paying sites. I think that was probably about the same time we met that I dropped those. Thanks for your response in this and the other discussions too. It's nice to see that you are doing well!

I have been here in mylot for two years now and so far have earned only around $2.75, lol. Too slow, but I don't mind because I still gain many things from it. Besides, mylot I am earning from other online business and stay-at-home data entry (part-time) so I am very happy with all these.

That is great that you have found other ways to stay home and make money. I would just love to remain at home and not have to find another job. I thought I was going to be able to there for a while, but one of the sites I was working for has dropped their pay 3 times in the last 8 months. But I keep looking, and hopefully one of this days I will have significant income. Hopefully mostly from residuals for writing, then I can take more time off. LOL Thank you for your response in this discussion, and have a great day!

Holy Cow, Magda191919, that is an amazing number of sites. 120, what a number. I can most certainly say, even though I am joining some, and opting out of others still to this day, that I am not a member of that many. Congratulations to you! I don't see how you keep up with it all. I bet you are a very busy individual. Kudos, to you! Thank you for taking the time to respond in this discussion. I hope you have a joyous evening!

I have been with myLot around 6 months now I think. And during this time I have truly enjoyed it here. I like the fact that we all get paid just to discuss stuff and I also like the way that we can rely on myLot to pay us all when we have earnt enough. I joined many sites a long time ago, but have to say I was disappointed with most and these days I only use maybe 2 or 3 regularly.

Hey there, UK_Shree, always a pleasure! I know what you mean by the unreliable sites. I have joined a few of those in my days or maybe even more than a few. LOL It seems like you have been around a lot longer than that. I recognize your screen name from different discussions. I am glad that you too, enjoy your time spent here on myLot. It is one of the best paying programs that I have joined, and I plan to be here for a long time to come. Thanks again and good luck to you in the future!

I have about 275 friends here on myLot, and amongst them I am sure there are several from other countries. I have learned a lot from other members here. And sometimes, it is good if you just want to find out something to search the discussions. There is usually something on about every topic. Thank you for your response in this discussion, and keep on myLotting!

I am sure if you stay consistent on this site you will have no trouble reaching payout. I wished I had friends that were more involved in earning money online. Some of them have no clue how easy it is. I especially don't like it when they complain about money when they won't even come to my web site and take a look at all of the different ways there are to earn money online. Even if it's just a few extra bucks every month, every penny adds up if you ask me. Good luck to you in your online adventures mye_drew, and thank you for your response in this discussion.

Hi kykidd I think I been here for three weeks and so far it has been grate. There are many nice people and good discussions that some are really interesting to me. And the best part is that we get payed for writing in myLot and that is great. So far I have not got to my pay out but I'm looking forward to it and if this site is like some have wrote that it might be I would be hear for a long time.

I am sure you will not be disappointed, desteny114. I hope you will be on myLot for a long time to come. I am not sure of the exact date that I joined, because on my profile it just states member for 3 years. So, it could be just exactly 3 years, or it could be 3 years 11 months and 29 days. LOL I'll have to pay attention and see when it switches to 4 years, so that I know about when I started. Thank you for your response in this discussion, and good luck to you in the future!

That's a great way to look at it YazEid. Life's all about having fun! And if you can earn a few bucks in the process, hey why not! I really like myLot, and like most people, I joined the site to have some additional income. In the meantime, I have learned that it would take a lot of time and referrals to make the kind of income I need from one site alone. But why not enjoy the time spent here and also learn a little about friends. Thanks for your response in this discussion, and have a great day!

I've been on mylot for almost 2 years now. I agree that mylot has been pretty good to its users, too. Mylot is one of my absolute favorite GPT sites. I think my only other longer membership is on myspace. I've been using myspace since early 2005.

I had an account on mySpace for about a year, I think. The main reason that I joined was to locate a lost loved one. After I did that, it seemed like I was swamped trying to keep up with everyone on there. I had to give it up because it was so time demanding. And I really needed to spend what hours I am online trying to make some extra money. Actually, at the time I don't think I "needed" to spend the time making extra money. I think it just became a hobby of mine. I am always trying to find new and better ways to make money. I like the saying "If you find something that you love to do, you will never work a day in your life." I don't remember who said it, or if those are the exact words. But it is definitely words to live by. Thank you for your response in this discussion. I didn't mean to ramble on. LOL Have a great day!

I have been on mylot for about a year and a half now maybe. Lately I have not had much time to spend on this site and so my earnings here are pretty slim..I don't even remember the last time I made payout. BUT, when I do not feel like working and need a break I do like coming here and checking out the different discussions :) My biggest way for making money online was to create my own sites and monetize them. It is bringing in much more than I ever would make here (which explains why I don't spend so much time here anymore, lol) - I also do really well writing articles for sites like associated content. 10 years is a very long time, I wish I would have started ten years ago! Congrats!

It sounds like you are starting in the right direction. It took me quite a while to find the survey sites that actually paid. But now I have a few of them that I really enjoy. As a matter of fact, one has sent me samples a couple of times through the years, and then they give me a survey to review the product after a certain period of time. These are great, because not only do you get the free sample, but you also get paid cash! Isn't life grand. LOL Thank you for your response in this discussion, and have a wonderful day here on myLot!
