Amazing friends vs Earning Money

One of my friend who is not on mylot asked me why am I after earning money at my lot? I think mylot has ceases to be about earning money , more than that I have met some absolutely amazing people on mylot and have been inspired by them. I might never have come across them if it was not for this forum and I cherish people I know here, What do you think? Is it only money keeping you here or you have become addicted to interacting with your friends?

I am new here at mylot but I am absolutely hooked already. It's a wonderful place and you get paid for actually talking to people. It's a great way to make new friends. Making money + Making friends = that's a pretty sweet deal right :)

Hello ellaine! Welcome to mylot! That's what I loved about this site. When I was newbie, I just dropped into this site cause I am in search for making money online. So, at first I am just into making money. But then on, I realized what good mylot has brought me. It somehow became my diary at times. I had made few friends who somehow made really close to my heart though we are miles apart. I really loved the feeling of making new friends who I can share my deepest thoughts and feelings. Just enjoy yourself in here, participating in discussions is the most fun part in here to earn also. You can also refer friends, do takss and search in here to add more earnings. See yah!

hi mansha, I consider mylot as a place to get money by enjoying my hobby to share my ideas to other people about subjects that i like. by seeing this as a hobby, you will get into the flow and get money without even realizing it:) this way also avoids me from confusion between choices of making friends or making money.

It's a bit of both for me... I enjoy reading and responding to friends discussions, and seeing my earnings rise I think that is what keeps me coming back. I'm not here just for the money, I find it a great outlet to discuss problems and help others.

That's great to hear, i too have built some wonderful friendships on the internet. Mylot is a great place to interact with people from around the globe and get advice and opinion about almost anything. I would recommend mylot to many people to try not everyone is a social butterfly and there are alot of questions you can easily post and answer here on mylot but if you were in real life then it would be much harder to approach your friends in real life with some of the things that are presented here. I think the money is an incentive to keep people coming back to this particular website to discuss and share their comments instead of one of the other tens of thousand with forums available that dont pay you anything at all.

Oh, yes I agree with you that being in my myLot is more than earning money. If my time restrict me for loggin , I felt some kind of guilt and will do my best to make comments on my friends discussions as I received emails of their discussions. I always felt obligated to posts on few of them and I miss them all if I am not here in myLot.
