What's the worth of your $10 here at myLot? Just curious...

The minimum payout here at myLot is $10. What can you buy with your $10 worth of myLot money, let's say, in your own country? In my native country, that's about 500 pesos. I haven't been there for six months but as far as I could remember, I could buy a big plastic bottle of conditioner, eat in a fastfood chain (big burger with fries and drink) and watch a movie with popcorn and drinks while at it! Here in the U.S., I could only buy a medium-sized conditioner and perhaps a Dunkin Donut with hot choco. How about you?

the $10 minimum mylot payment would amount to about seven euros. That would buy me half a dinner ta fast food chipper, almost one adult ticket at a cinema, or two mochas at my coffee house. It isn't much but I guess it will pile up over time.

Thanks for the response! Yes, the key is really into compiling the money. It's just so interesting to know what the worth of the said amount in our own countries would be. Happy myLotting!

Man, you must have missed the Philippines! Once a Pinoy, always a Pinoy wherever they maybe, right? You are correct, a 500 pesos could already buy more goodies here than in the USA. I could already watch a very good movie with that (SpiderMan3 is coming hehehehehe). For a single mouth, a grocery trip could already feed for 3 or 4 days depending on the appetite (hope to suppressed it...but hard to do). I am hoping you are doing good there, my friend. How I wish i could also be given to visit USA. Magandang araw sa yo kaibigan!

Maraming salamat, kaibigan! I really miss the Philippines and the Pinoys! I shall be visiting in June and shall be staying there till August. I'm so excited! I will most probably bring my earnings from myLot and spend it there. My dollars will have more worth! Hahaha. Happy myLotting!

That's a very good question! It's really interesting to see how much it is worth in different countries. I'm in the United States, so it doesn't go all that far. I'm planning to just leave it in paypal until I get a few more payments and let it build up, and then spend it on ebay once I have more.

That's also my plan. Once the money builds up, it's going to be big enough to buy something of more value. Thanks for the response!

In Singapore, $10 from mylot can be the price of one and half donation ticket. It is my one week's bus fare or lunch. I can buy a tin of 1.5L of Milo or 10 pieces of fresh chicken drumstick from the market. 2 breakfast meals or 5 fish burgers from Mcdonalds. Oh yes, 2 KFC meals too. This is also the pay of doing about 2 hours of temp job.

Not bad for a 2-hour temporary job, compared to my country. I think you can buy more than what I can -- hehe. Thanks for the response!

That's good enough. Anyway, it's best to save the money until it gets bigger, so that more people can eat, and at your favorite restaurant at that! Haha. Thanks for the response!

You can earn more money by inviting as many friends as you could, then turn to "notify on" so that all your friends' discussions will enter your e-mail, so that you can answer from there (it's very fast) and your friends will also support your discussions. When you respond, be sure you give quality responses (of at least 4 sentences). Earning $10 here depends on the person. In my case, I got that in a one-and-a-half weeks of at least 15 responses per day and at least four posts a week. You can even do better than me if you have referrals and upload images (which I don't have time to do anymore because I have a full-time job). Happy myLotting!

I'm in the US and got paid $11.42. I end up using my paypal money on ebay, so it'll probably go for an outfit or something for DS. Definately doesn't go very far, but it's nice to have in case I want something.

Yes, at least there's something than nothing! Besides, we had fun here, and the money is an added boost. I guess I'd be buying books online from Amazon as well. Thanks for the response!

The $10 would certainly help me payout the broadband connection that I pay about $20 a month or P995 here in the Philippines. If i earn $20 dollars in 1 month, then I am solved as far as my broadband connection is concerned.

At least that's one important bill that gets to be paid! That's good to hear. Thanks for the response!

wel i guess it does not worth much here in israel, about 200 new shekels. that means that i can buy here a ticket to travel the bus ten times. i can buy conditionar+shampoo+body cream. i can but two meals at a restaurant. i can buy 1.5 movie ticket and that's about it. it is not much, but it is money, that will help me.

Reading this gives me an idea what 200 new shekels (exchange rate for $10) would get me. Very interesting! Not much but you're right, still something. Thanks for the response!

I am from the US which 10 dollars is 10 dollars :) I would probably get paypal to send me a check and buy me a new CD or movie. I am a big movie/music/game fan. Something of this nature. I would love to make a living on mylot. I could by EVERYTHING!! lol. That will never happen :P

$10 at mylot here, is about RM 34.++ at my contry here. Is not that much but this amount is around the same as daily wages for low income people or students who taking part time jobs here. That is not much and can easily spend until no left. I can go for 3 movies or 15.625 litter of petrol or gas or eat 4 set of meals in fast food chain or buy few Dunkin Donut or 2 cups of regular size of ice blended chocolate in coffee bean using that $10 here. although it is not much, but once this amount add up everytime, we can see the big difference on it.

Well, I guess that's still more than what I could get in my native country. Hehe. Imagine, 4 sets of meal in a fastfood chain! Wow! Well, the good thing I could think of is we're getting paid for having fun. You're right, it's going to be more valuable if we add up the amount. Thanks for the response!
