Is mylot a time waster?

think about it this way, people who don't have a job because they can't work due to disability or some kind of illness is a good way of making some extra bucks, the reason why everyone is here is to make money, there's no doubt about that, but while being here they are getting paid for something they enjoy, so it is a good way of earning if they cannot go and work, also myself, i do work, but have taken a month off after having surgery so any extra £££ does come in very handy even if it is only a few bucks, i have made at least $30 per month by posting here, i have been able to purchase stuff off the net so having that in my account is great, of course i am here because it pays but i also come here because i have some awesome friends too, i don't think it's a waste of time, some people cannot go out and work so any extra cash helps them alot....even if it's only a few bucks, it's a few bucks more than they already had, i won't leave here because i love writing and i can express myself and take advice from people, i enjoy it here plus it pays me for something i enjoy so thinking about leaving is not on my mind right now.

Well, I do not think that myLot is a time waster. However, I do agree that those who are here just to earn money will be wasting their time here as they will find it quite hard to reach the $10 payout.

For me, I do think myLot as a place for sharing views and comments and experiences. In addition, this is a good place where you can also learn about some of the different issues from people of different countries. It's also a good place to gain knowledge. I like to be here because of all these reasons.

Have a nice day. Happy mylotting to all...

I definitely agree. MyLot is not the place to make some fast money. I like to think of it as a social networking site rather than a money-making site. The money part of it, to me, is just a bonus. It's making money to have fun, make friends, learn new things and share things.

It's not a lot of money, for sure, but it has helped me to get a few things that I've needed. I just keep the money I make here for emergencies and it has definitely helped a couple of times!

Yes, to make money, go somewhere else. You can make a few dollars here, for sure, but not quickly. However, it is a good place to get referrals, once you're established. I'm more than happy to join sites that interest me under someone else, as long as I have gotten to know them. I'm all for people first, money second.

It would be pleasant to talk and share with people with a being-paid prospect. For me, it's a great surprise. The first time I knew that there is actually forum which pays you to post, I just couldn't believe it. I've been here for almost a year now and I enjoy posting and sharing ideas with mylotters whenever I feel happy to. I don't take earning as my primary goal though. I think posting merely out of money making idea is not a good idea and that wouldn't help in the quality of the posts either.

I have gained much in valuable information during my time spent on myLot and earned a little cash in the process while networking with other writers so in my opinion it is not.

yes,i agree with your words.in fact,it really need much time,but you get less.but you can believe that mylot is a true palce,not a scam.and you can make many friends here.

Mylot is more enjoyable if you do it for the discussions rather than the money.

Mylot is a time waster if you're here just to make money. It's going to take you forever to earn a few bucks. However, I can see it helping out people in other countries where $10 will go much further than, say, here in the West.

In MyLot, you not only earn but also learn. For me it has been a two way process.
It is a fact that you make only a few bucks. But can you suggest me other alternative ways to make really good money, so that I can have my time spent on the Computer to more productive use. SUGGESTIONS PLEASE...

Very well said and very much agreed upon. It not like we can make a lot of month here on monthly basis. This is only a side income. Look at this in a different angle. Let say we were chatting with people on issue and currently happenings. We would just chat emptily as we will not be paid. Here we get to meet people and help those in form of giving advise and making friend. Last but not least we make a little of money. That why I am here.
