And I'm surprised I made that much! I think I spent maybe an hour all told on my computer, most of my computer time was actually spent on deleting junk emails and looking at some of my other stuff, just leaving the mylot stuff in my inbox. I was running all day yesterday, I'm hoping that sometime soon I can catch up again! Have you guys had weeks like mine? Running and running but not able to keep up with all you really need to do? I hope to see some down time next week, I won't be having to spend 2 hours a day to get my cat out of the shelter anymore.

Nice suprise is good. It all adds up. But, you know when you really think about it. Deleteing junk mail don't pay you. I don't know about the cat story, I guess I will have to go back on your post and do some reading. Good luck on catching up.

I'm still rather new here and don't have any referrals so I'm only making pennies a day also. My husband joked with me and told me I use more on electricity then I make earning money. But I told him I'm not doing this for the money I told him I need to communicate with people and share my feelings. Since no one here wants to talk to me they're involved in there T.V. or other things and you're too busy running around helping everybody I need someone to talk to. So, thank you for being here for me and everyone else at mylot.

I'm here for the chat too. I was posting on a message board site and was told I could actually make a few cents here so I joined. So, I'd be online anyway talking anyway, and a few bucks doesn't hurt any.

I think you are right about that. I rather like being able to talk to people even if I don't get paid much. As long as people don't start getting nasty, this is fun. Of course some topics are becoming irritating because they become heated and certain individuals only look at their own side of the argument. I think that's one reason I don't look at TV and getting information from posts is the only way I get any information any more.

I have had days like that when I was too busy to get on myLot for sometime. I also had days when I wanted to get something important done, but was too busy going from place to place, visiting, shopping invited someplace, etc. that I did not know when I am coming or going. Today is going to be such a day, since we will be going out for supper. That's why I am on myLot now, rather than waiting until the afternoon.

I've been popping in as I've had time today, going to be home the rest of the day, but we had a cat fight this morning that got us up early so I think I'm going to be laying down for a while soon.

Some days about the only time I have to get on is when I wake up in the middle of the night. Even that hasn't been an option this week, I've been sleeping pretty good.

Now I feel like a total addict. The lowest sum that I have made in a day was 42 cents this month. I don't do this for the money, but it's handy, but because I like the chat. If people are only managing a few cents, and my average is somewhere around a dollar a day, then I must be writing a lot of posts. I'd better get a life. Could have sworn that I had one. Must have left it some place. LOL

I've never made that much on here, but I've had a job ever since I've been here. Working 23.5 hrs up till the first of the year and then it went up to 25 hrs a week, plus going to my mom's another 6 hours a week, PLUS driving and picking up my roommate from her job... I'm basicly working about full time. At least I'm not working for that crazy bi.. person I was working for before. But it does cut into the mylot time....

the only days I haven't made any money were days I wasn't able to get online - like when I was in NJ back in June. Honestly, I didn't miss getting on mylot then, I was too busy, but as busy as I was yesterday, I did miss it.

WOW! That's great! I wish I could do something like that myself. I was afraid that I would earn less yesterday because I didn't feel like I spent any time on mylot, tho I know I did. I was afraid it'd be a penny day/

Some days I don't make anything. It depends if I am able to get online or not. Some days my referrals are more active than I am and they make me a penny or two.

Well, a few cents may seemed little but over time builds to a good earning for the month. I earned three cents yesterday,I think, but it still feels good. It is already into March and my plan to sign up good referrals have hardly taken off yet.

I've already made April's payout since I did so well last month and earlier this month. Its more that I was surprised to make ANYTHING I was on so little yesterday!

Woohoo! You are rich now! lol. Don't spend it all at once! 4 cents! What a laugh. I remember when I joined Helium, I was excited to earn my first 5 cents through them! lol. I've been pretty busy, and sick with the flu, so unfortunately, some things have been sadly neglected, including mylot. I am trying to keep up, but find myself falling asleep every few mins. A nap on the couch doesn't help either as when I get up, I see to household duties before coming back. Hhhhhmmm there is a pattern there somewhere.

The fact is that we have to make our priorities. I have to put "real" life ahead of "online" life and if I were in your shoes, the household would come before the online. I've gotten behind when I've been sick, so I just do the best I can when I do. Hope you get to feeling better soon!

Still fighting the flu, but now I have the help of the dr behind me, so should be on the mend real soon. House is still in a sorry state, but we can at least see the floor and nothing is walking out the door on its own. Oh, but have a new roof! lol.

haha, just like you i try to maintain an hour to use for a specific task on my computer. it really struck me sometimes to find out i am making at least more than 4 cents a day. the first time i post here i earn .05 and that is the least i got in here then i just started to see how this things goes and now the most i earned is .79 i have been posting here for a week now and i have $3.82 i dont know how they get that fast after reading that some post 30-40 messages and dont even reach .40 so i wonder what i am doing right, haha i have posted 61 total for such amount and that to me is pretty good. not sure if i do type fast to make that much post in a week but i am trying to make at least an hour to spend here coz i still want to learn other stuff and not just mylot, hehe seems like this site is making me addicted so hope i dont have to spend that much time other than an hour. anyway, i have seen that you have posted 5306, wow that's a lot! how long have you been here? did you make money out of it? just wonder coz i have seen that you have that much post and for some reason i dont see a star, i heard once you reach 100 post then you will have a star. now i am getting confused out here, anyway, i hope you can help me out takecare
@ElicBxn (63233)

Yeah, when you are responding, you don't see the star. I've been here for a year, some times I do better than others. Reading doesn't earn you money, starting and especially responding to discussions is where you make the money. Stick to it and you can make some change, not a living, but you can have fun.

thank you for sharing your experience. i dont post here for money only, i just feel happy that i am learning and being part of the discussion, not sure if i can really say i earn some friends but i do met some good people out here. i have realized that this site helps me express my self and helps me to ease my stress that usually leads to my depression so it is really a great thing for me. anyway, it will be cool to have to star as well, but i still have a long ways to go, haha! takecare!

I don't know how, but I made .65 yesterday!!! I got caught up on all my email and today I am finishing my homework which is due by midnight CST. I will finish it before I go to bed China time. I just hope that when I start my other two classes next month that I will be able to spend some time in here. I guess I'd better do a lot in the next two weeks because after that, I may not get much done. I hope your cat is not much trouble anymore. Have a great day/night/week!!!

I made payout early this month - because I did amazingly well in Feb. I don't resent anyone making money here - I just felt great that I even MADE 4 cents that day when I was hardly able to get online at all!

That's great. I think I've made another 4 cents again yesterday. I'm just glad that I have done the time at shelter and I have my cat back and I can take a nap if I need too. That's what I ended up doing most of yesterday afternoon.

Hopefully you'll be able to get back into this again. Get enough rest and take care of yourself. You are going to hate me. I made .82 today. I might make payout next month. Of course if I have to spend too much time on homework, it might not happen, but I won't worry about it. I'm having fun and that's what counts. Talk to you later.

I made 16 cents yesterday, not as much as some days since it is a holiday for me here and I wasn't so active. On good days, I can make about double that, but the weekends are the worst for me as I am usually out of the house.

I generally make more on the weekends, but this weekend is going to busy because of the holy day, my sister being in town for the weekend, etc. I'm ready to have an easier time now that I've got my cat back.

I don't think there is a maximum. I think you earn on how much you post and I've heard that some people have earned over a dollar a day, I have never earned that much, but then again, I have a life!

Some times spending time in mylot yield earning. But not always. I don't know what parameter they have to measure our labour credit our account.

I was actually more surprised that I made 4 cents rather than lamenting that I ONLY made 4 cents! I don't care how they figure it out, I do know I make more on responses than on actually starting discussions.
