Think you'll reach payout?

Have you reached payout for this month? Think you might? I'm at $4.75 so I'm not sure I'll reach it but I hope so. I have noticed that the pay seems to have gone down a bit the past few days even though I've been more active. What about you?

I seriously doubt if i make payout this month.Im only at $2.13.i havent been posting as much.I have noticed a decrease in the earnings as well.Im thinking because of the population growing.When i started 9 months ago there were only 30,000 members.

I haven't really noticed anything about the pay, either. To make the most of myLot (and to make the most ON myLot!) make sure that your answers and questions have a lot of substance to it. I've been payed out before, but I was not really active for the past month or so. These past two weeks, however, I've gone from a few cents to almost $4. Good luck!

Wow! That's really good...to be able to jump from a few cents to $4! My biggest jump, I think, is also the past two weeks but it was a mere $2 jump...not much! lol But I am not as frequent a poster as I would like to be. I have too much other stuff to deal with when I am online. That's good advice though..to make sure the answers and questions have a lot of substance. I think that makes all the difference.

This is the first month I've ever wondered about whether I'd meet payout, since I joined in January. In fact, I've been paid from $20-$40 most months. However, this month I've been very ill, and it's affected my activity here. And I think we are getting paid less now than when I joined in January, though since my activity has changed as well, I can't be sure of that. I'm at $8.76 right now, and we've still got about a week, so I should make it, but it'll be the least I've ever made from mylot in a month.

Well I hope you're feeling better. You're at a pretty good amount so I don't see why you shouldn't be able to meet payout. Good luck.

I have not reached it yet. I hope to reach it but it is going to be tight. I find it hard to find discussions where I can really write more than three or four lines and which I can talk intelligently on. Yes the pay rate has gone down, and I have to write more to get the same amount. Yesterday I was able to get on some very interesting discussions, but today, I was having a bit of trouble.

I have not really noticed much about the pay...but I am glad I finally hit the payout mark...but it took me a couple of months...it might be less for you. Everyone is different...! It seems unlikely you would reach it for this month given where you are at right now...but that doesn't mean it's entirely impossible! After all, all things are possible with God! :) You could make a good go of it though, and probably end up with a decent amount so that next month, you'll reach it without even breaking a sweat! All the best to you!

Thanks, I hope I'll be able to do it. It took me 2 weeks to really get to where I am at but I've been averaging 30 to 57 cents a night, if I kick it up then maybe.

Your discussion was 1 week ago and you must had been talking about July's payout. No I haven't reached the July payout and I was way below the mark. I haven't been really active here since June because I noticed a dramatically drop in the earnings, I admit that I was less motivated to come on here and chit chat. Also, I was thinking about and planning things to do during my career break later in the year and therefore, I only came on twice or less a week. But I hope that I would reach the payout amount in August and I should be around more often. Well, I am still not sure, but I think I will work as best as I can. Wish you good luck too!

Nice! I have been on here more active in August and I have been working diligently on mylot today! Hope I would make the payout this month. I have to anyway *laughs*.

I hope you reach that payout! I've been trying to be on here more this month but have been spending a lot of time researching different methods of making a decent living online and reading many blogs and sites on how to do so. I am trying to catch up all my posts tonight and start a new batch tomorrow. I plan to try and double or triple what I made last month.

Thanks and good luck! I was talking about July, I missed it by less then $1. At least now I have reached it for August, which means I'm not under huge pressure to beat the calender for payout this month. I'm still trying to be a lot more active then I was, the majority of what I made was in the last week of July because I was trying to reach payout. So that shows me that if I work at it, the earnings can be kinda good.

I don't know about the pay but I still need to much to think about payout this month. I think I will by next month and I was wondering if anyone gets a pay out from here every month or has no one been able to do that?
