i see that there are a lot of active members of mylot. But I can't help but notice that its hard to earn here. And sometimes i get discourage to continue. Sometimes i feel that I just wasted my time and effort. what are your thoughts?

The original spirit of myLot can be found in my nerve - getting new friends, a S.C.A.M according to one of my dear friend, a mulitnational family. My views of myLot have changed from a chance to earn to chance to learn!

MyLot isn't about making money. It is a great place to socialize and network. I have been here just a few months and I have made some outstanding friends. The longer I am here...the funner it gets. The longer I am here...the more relaxed I am...I feel it is easier to be myself...joke around with other members.. This site has been around for years...I don't see it closing anytime soon. Have a great week

I have been here for 4 years and haven't made a lot of money I still will be here as long as myLot is here. It is a great place to learn what other people think and feel. You get out of it just what you put into it. It takes some effort to earn the same as any thing else.

I think a place like this will be around for sometime. There may seem like a lot of people on this website, but really there are not that many, when you compare them to the number of people who use the Internet on a regular basis, there really is not many. Even when people leave, there are always people who will discover it. I'm thinking that every day, even though there are a few people who leave to never post again, there are people who are discovering a website like this. Yes, there are times where I get frustrated but really this is just a hobby for me in many ways. The money is just gravy as far as I am concerned. Plus, I was never expecting to get rich. It really depends what you are looking for. If you are looking to just make payout, then it really is not that hard. If you are looking to make a lot of money, then it might seem frustrating. And even then, it might seem rather frustrating at times. There are times where you just need to take a day off and then I am ready to go fresher than ever.

Yeah, I think it is. Just look at how many happy users there are here... not to mention how long a lot of them have been here. If Mylot was a waste of time and effort, why would they spend so much time here?

Don't think too much about the earning part of mylot. There's more to mylot than earning money. It's an interactive online environment where you can post your thoughts and ideas on certain things that concern you, and meet new people. Just enjoy your mylot experience and don't think too much about the money. It will just come before you know it. Meanwhile, get a job that pays enough.

MyLot has been around for six years. It's not going anywhere. It won't make you a millionaire, nor will it make you a living wage but you take it as you find it. If you feel it's a waste of time, that's your estimation and is to be respected but it many not be the view of others.

Mylot has been here for a long time.Learn to socialize in mylot and meet new friends .It can be a lot of fun.You get to learn different lifestyles and different cultures.The added benifit is the money you get paid for to have fun.If you think this way I am sure you will have a great time.Remember that you cant make a living out of mylot.This is just a little extra to have fun with.

MyLot land has been around for a while now and although you will never become a millionaire, it's a lot of fun and the pennies do add up albeit slowly. If you feel it is a waste of your time and effort, then perhaps MyLot land isn't for you but I would suggest that you persevere and enjoy your time here.

I am always disappointed when a user states 'i get discourage to continue. Sometimes i feel that I just wasted my time and effort' especially when I am responding on page 2 and they have not participated at all in their topic yet Maybe you have not read the FAQs? Maybe you have misunderstood and think that you earn for what others post? Wrong! All these responses are not going to earn anything for you. They earn for the users who posted them. You only earn for what you type, not for what others type. MyLot give us this site and tell us what its purpose is and it is then up to us to make the most of it, enjoying the discussions and helping to keep it clean and filled with quality. It will last for as long as we want it to - and for many of us, that will be forever!

Only those who are willing to learn and do as what he/she told to do would find the gold at the gold mine. Those who only look at the surface and too lazy to dig will find nothing except some pieces of gold dropped by others unintentionally. How many times you read about this? And most of them do the same mistake again and again.

Just remember that when you post make it substantial. A one or two liner post will not earn you anything. Make it longer and if you have the resources you can add photo which should be relevant to your topic. That will also help. You can also go to the task and see if you can do them to earn more. Also you should use the search bar of mylot and they will reward you for that. Of course the earnings for the each post is not really that much but if you are patient enough you will find them going bigger each day and as you reach the payout you will be happy to have additional money for your shopping courtesy of mylot.

usually this discussion is started by the new member, it's true that this is hard if your main goal is money oriented, but when times running, passing it day by day, the activity in here has a lot of fun and at the end you will have your rewards as a bonus

Hiii there, No my lot is here on internet for long and its not going anywhere as well.I know earning here is low you cant expect high earning for just typing 4-5 sentence on every thread.What ever they are giving is decent i think.Neither great not too less.They are just paying us fine amount of money.

Hi jrocas, It is up to you how much you want to earn from here. You want it more then you need to work hard for it beside you must learn how to do it right. And if you want it less then it is up to you too. But one thing for sure, myLot would not make you rich. It is a social networking and as a social networking place, it is more as a platform to meet other people from a different place and different culture. Earnings here is only a bonus for us where you could hardly find it elsewhere. If you think it is a waste of time to participate at myLot then it is your own judgment. Nobody can argue it with you. It is up to you. As for me, I am happy with my earnings here. Not only earnings in term of money but also knowledge and friendship.

If I was here for the money, I would not be here. Its hard to make 15 cents in one day on myLot. But I'm having fun here and the money is secondary. That's why I stay. myLot is good for the brain. It makes you think, and remember. I'm a senior and I don't want to get forgetful, so I write on myLot and remember not to forget!

hi jrocas05 with only 59 points no you arent going to make anything, get busy posting but read the guidelines the tos and the questions and answers first so you will not have anything deleted as when mylot admins deletes your posts you do not get paid. I make about 34 dollars each month here so am not unhappy with mylot. you must make all postings at least four or five lines long to get really paid for your wo rk.mylot is definitely going to stay here as those of us who do make money here will keep on coming back.you want to earn, work at it, nothing is ever free anywhere. I like to earn myself.

mylot is here to stay. members come and go but there are still old time members who could give you help and inspiration to stay with us. for two year now, i have never thought of leaving the site. maybe, i got to be inactive for some times, but leaving the site is out of my mind. i hope you will find mylot a good site for yourself and consider staying for good.

I´m afraid you are wrong if you are here just to get money. You won´t get rich here, except in friends and knowledge. Still it is also an earning site and you can earn a decent amount each month if you follow guidelines, get friends, comment on their answers, post interesting things so people will want to answer you. Welcome to mylot! You are still a newbie here but I can tell you mylot is here to stay. We wouldn´t let it go!
