A Check Came In The Mail

Getting checks in the mail is fun. We are all very well aware of that here as each month MyLot pays us. We have a lot of fun doing what we do online, and we earn a little money, and all is good. On my blogs one of the ways I make money, besides just Googloe AdSense is through my affiliation links. It's not a lot of money, and you have to work hard for it. You have to have a blog people want to read, and you have to have links people want to click into, and affiliate links that people are interested in. But it does pay off. As this latest check proves. You can make a nice little side income doing things like blogging, surveys, MyLotting, and whatever else. I just thought it would be fun to share other forms of income from online activities. I should get a check from Google in about a month, and I should get a payout from HubPages for about $50 in a month or two. I definitely have made payout for MyLot. I am not getting rich, but I am getting money I never thought I would ever get, and this just made my day.

Awesome job, and yes it always nice to see checks in the mail, I don't do much besides here and survey junkie and just little things here and there and it's always nice when you reach payout.

Even though we still have to somewhat "work" for it, it does feel like free money since most of the time the things this extra money comes from is from stuff that we have fun with. I call that a win.

10 years ago too, i didn't know that I can earn through writing experiences, thoughts and the like online. And myLot was the very first one who gave me my online money. I discovered that it is not anymore so much about the earnings but the fun of having lots of friends and sharing experiences, beliefs and practices, is what make me be here at myLot.

Congratulations! The only place I was able to earn online was at Bubblews. The rest of the sites will not accept people from my country.

@porwest I earn around $10 a month here. But as you can imagine, $10 is not something to look forward to. I like mylot for the friends.

@marguicha No. $10 is not a lot of money. But at least you can earn THAT here. It's something if not much.

Oh man. That's sad to hear. You CAN earn from here though, right?

The little money we make here and there matters a lot. I'm just trying to find out if there is a way I can earn money from watching videos

@aureliah And probably starting a business of some kind. I don't think it can be done unless you own something.

There is probably a way. Who knows? I mean, one thing the Internet has done is to find ways for people to do ordinary things and make a few pennies here and there. That all aside, I have never found a way to make a living at it yet. Still looking.

Good for you. It does pay off. But it sure takes a lot of our time.

It DOES take a lot of our time. But I tend to like to think I balance it. I know where the money is, and I know what time is worth, and so I generally go about any site or any online endeavor with that in mind.

@porwest HubPages is the only one I have tried on your list. I just don't know if I could find the time to do any more. Yes, a lot of the sites eventually disappear. Thanks for this info. Great earnings.

Did you opt for this mode of payment or did you not have a choice? I prefer digital payment. That is a tidy sum, I must say

Nice!!! Always good to see when your time and hard work pay off from working online. I have a few sites I work at too and its nice when those checks come in. I have all mine go into Paypal and that is where a lot of my Christmas money comes from every year. Keep up the good work

Oh that is cool! Congrats! I wanted to start a blog, but I think the best blogs are specific to either a hobby, interest, or lifestyle... or group of people .... and me? Well, I'm just me. I write about a lot of stuff. :-D But very cool none the less

"Money, money, money" as the girl on Cashback commercials would say! Always nice to really have that check in the mail. Better than a bill

I get a check from Hubpages about once a year. I forgot my password, and can't get back on.
