Hi everyone, I remember how I was really upset because at the end of the month, I was at $9.82 which fell short of the $10 payout. I couldn't believe it yesterday when I opened my email and found that mylot had sent me $10.20!!! I was SO surprised!!! I thought I would have to wait until next month, but they sent it this month. I can finally start putting money back into my bank account again. It will take a little longer to get to the next one because I can't come in very often, but that's ok. I got paid and it is great!!! Have a great day!!!

I agree that it is nice to get paid for the work I did. It is not building up as quickly this month because I don't have time to work on this any more. I am now doing three doctoral level classes and spend most of my time working on that. Have a great day!!!

hello, you're welcome! i am not sure if i am more but yes i made it for the next payout, i currently have $16.99 i didnt post much from friday till now coz hubby is back home so i am back to my normal hour post. the highest i got was last wednesday ($1.50) the 2nd night of hm being away so i have more time to spend here while waiting for me to fall asleep hehe. yes, it is not much all the time and it all depends to the post (i still dont know how that works though) but i am thankful that i am having a place where i can relax my mind and help me sleep :) anyway, i wish you all the best i know you are having difficulties right now, like you said, life must go on. takecare and good night!

I find it hard to believe that you have made that much!!! People must REALLY like your posts. I know I do. But for me, it is ok just to do what I can do. If it doesn't earn as much as the next person, oh well. I don't know if I will get to many discussions today. I just got home from work and I have all my homework for this week to get started on. What else is going on will be the next discussion I start. Have a great day!!!

Thanks. Are you anywhere close? I think you said you had a lot more money than I could have dreamed possible at the time I mentioned it the first time. I will try to spend at least some time in here each day so I can get something. It may not be as much as other times, but life happens and I have to keep up with it. Have a great day!!!

Wow! Congratulations! Yes, it's my first pay-out too the other day and it's a good feeling that somehow we got some money rewards coming in monthly. If we have $10 every month or more, then that would be 120 in a year. Something else, right? We could gain more friends, learn life lessons and still save some amount. Pretty cool site we really got ourselves into. Whew! Cheers!

Thanks. I only started March 6. I spent a lot more time on this last month than this month. So far this month, I have only made $2.08. But I have decided that I would spend about an hour a day in here and try to get something, even if it takes two months to make payout. If you make substantial posts, you will make more than short ones. But it doesn't need too be too long. Good luck.

I'm impressed. It took me 50 posts to get .50!!! This says you have 14 posts. My question to you is how did you do it??? If you keep making good posts, you will reach payout a lot earlier than I did. So far this month, I have only made $2.08, but I have had a lot less time than I had last month because I am not taking three classes in addition to teaching. Once I reached 100 posts and had my star, I started getting more than a penny per post. I have heard many people say they reached payout with a lot less posts than I had. As far as climbing to $10, what I suggest is try to respond to at least 10 discussions a day and make them a good length like this one was. Last month I was spending 3-4 hours a day in here, but at the rate you are going, it would probably work to spend an hour. If you write good posts, people will hit the + button and that is how you make more money. Good luck!!!

Hello daeckardtb and congratulations on your paymant. I'm awaiting to receive my third payout from myLot. Now I have $16.74 in my myLot earnings and with this my myLot earnings is around the sum of $45-50 from when I became a member of this community. This doesn't seem to much but I was inactive for about 3-4 months or longer because I didn't have any internet connection. Now I'm trying to make up for the lost time and be as much active as I can. After I get payed a weird thing it's happening, every time, I seems that I can't reach the next payout limit. But this month I will try harder and maybe I will set my payout limit at $25. I don't know yet, I'm still thinking about it. Take care and have a great day ScarFace

You have about the same number of posts as I do and you have already been paid twice??? What am I doing wrong??? I hear some people say they get paid with a lot less posts than I've made and others that haven't been paid yet with a lot more. This confuses me. Oh well. Keep up the good work!!!

its a good thing that you were able to receive your payment this time, according to crash mylot do a recalculation of our earnings and add the earnings coming from deleted discussion to all of us. that's the reason why you were able to receive payment even though you only have $9.82 in your account.

GOOD for you!!!! I am new here so i will try my best to get the earnings. Although they paid quite little for each post. But hey, they really paid isn't it! Feel so great for you!!! Happy for you even that you can get your payment! LUcky that i get to know ,MYLOT at the start of the month so i have nothing to feel lost about.I will work hard to strive my goal and definitely reponse it with really subject inside to make it relevant. I'm a talkative person and will always write way out of the topic, but i enjoy talking here. Haha!! SO great, i just feel great for you!!!

Hey, hang in there!!! Since you are new, what I would suggest is trying to respond to at least 10 discussions a day (or create your own) and make long posts like this. If they are even remotely related to the topic, it is ok. I have one lady that once I respond to here we talk back and forth for a long time. It does get off-topic, but after the initial response, we just talk. Have a great day!!!

Hi there, im only new here at mylot and i still need a little help here. I dont know how to transfer my account to e-gold account because there is no paypal in our area.. How will I get paid here? I really need an extra money to help my parents with the bills and for me to continue with my study in college. Life here in the Philippines is really difficult. The prices are way too high than the salary of an employee. I really want to help my parents.. Please help me. Thank you so much.

I don't think e-gold is an option. I think the only ones they listed were paypal and moneybookers. I'm sure if you make good responses like this, you will reach payout. You might check with the other people in your area (there are a lot listed in my friends), they can tell you how to arrange payment there. Maybe you can start a post to them. Good luck.

It's good that you made payout. Do you usually make payout every month?

Actually, I just started March 6 so I guess so far, I did. I don't think I will make it this month because I am not spending much time in here because of my classes. If it were only my teaching schedule, I could be in here for hours like last month, but now I am doing three doctoral level classes so it will be a little harder than it was. How much time do you spend in here? I hope that you are able to get there soon. Keep on posting!!!

Congratulations!!! Isn't is a Good feeling to know myLot does pay, and continues to pay people month after month. I have been a member here now for a yr. and a half, and have made quite a bit on here, and look forward to earning more here all of the time. No, I am not on here as often as a lot of the others here are either, but I come in here when I can. Hope you get many more payouts from here.

Thanks. Like I mentioned to someone else, I will try to schedule my time so I can come in an hour a day or something. I really do need to spend more time on homework and less on other things on the computer. Have a great day!!!

Thanks Sir_bobby88, I have already transferred the money into my savings account. I hope that I won't have to go into that money (either what I put into it from mylot or what was in there before) until I return to America in July. It might be sooner than July depending on the outcome of a situation here the other night, but that is another story. Have a great day!!!

That's great that you got paid! I know every little bit helps. I am trying to be more active on here so I can make some extra money for vacation time. I know I won't earn a load of money, but even less than $100 is a lot when it's extra.

You are right. Every little bit helps. And when you are in China, $10 is about 70 RMB and that goes a lot further here than in America. Have a great day!!!

Thanks. I'm sure you will get there one day. Keep up the good posts and you will get there!!! I'm sure a door will open somewhere. I mentioned in another post that my job may be in danger because I am not talking to the office after they kept calling telling my nephew he had to leave in three days. So I am hoping that money will start coming in so I can get out of China. Talk to you later.

Thanks. I really miss being able to come in here as often as before. I just hope that I can start visiting more often again. I might set up a schedule where I spend an hour here, an hour in Helium, about five hours on homework and maybe then I can get everything done. Have a great day!!!
