Aside from making money, any other reason why you joined Mylot?

As for me, yes i was enticed to join with the idea of earning while sharing your opinion. On another note, recently it has become an outlet of expression for me , it helps with the stress of everyday work. In mylot you could just look for any topic you like and type away what you think - no inhibitions. It's gives you a sense the freedom you cannot normally do at work or at home. How about you guys? Is mylot only a money earning site for you?

Apart from the income, I joined myLot because I like to browse forums / discussions boards.. It's a good place to learn many things from different people..

INitially, i only joined mylot for the money.. But as i log in here more regularly, and the more frenz i make, i found that my main purpose wasn't money anymore.. Instead, i missed all my frenz here and it's a great place for us to share experiences and opinions, as well as making new frenz.. plus updating of news that has been happening in other countries ^_^ In other words, mylot is my favourite hangout place now whenever i'm online.. haha

If I pocket some profit from myLot that would be a nice thing but I really enjoy reading and commenting on discussions that I find interesting. The friendships that I hope to develop and having a place to call home where I can express myself are the main reason I joined myLot. So far, my experience has been a good one.

I am stuck at home so I find being in MyLot land gives me the chance to interact with people around the world. There are so many wonderful people here, full of knowledge and experience, many and varied opinions and views, and I have made some great friends here too

Let me speak frankly, I'm here for primary motive of making money and a lot of money. At mylot I not only earn money by posting responses, referring others and starting discussions (please inform me whether some other way of making money is also available at Mylot which I'm not aware of )but come to know about other opportunities available on internet through sharing of information by other members. All in all I like Mylot very much and enjoy every moment I pass here. Long live Mylot !

Hello roi452. I think I joined because I was curious about it. I don't belong to any other "social" websites and wondered what it would be all about. I must admit I've learned some things from others since I joined MyLot. I've never reach payout, in fact, I don't even know what the minimum payout is here! I guess I also consider it "cheap entertainment". Take care. PearlGrace

i agree with you. this site have been my outlet too. at first im having second thoughts of joining this site. since im not really used in sharing my opinions. im a direct person. i don't really elaborate on things that i feel or thought. but when i joined this site, i learned to express my self, share my opinions, discover things and meet new friends.

agree , we do learn self-expression here and how to express yourself effectively. though i haven't made many friends yet, im hoping that too would become one of my reasons for staying in mylot.

As for me...I am not exactly joining any website for money. I have my own philosophy where I will earn my own money through my efforts and my talents. I joined this website to gain more friends and to discover something new. Plus I want to discuss the issues that have something to do with me. To be honest I do not really have much friends around me to hang out.....this is the only way for me to keep in touch with people around the globe. Cheers

I only joined becuase I did an internet search on a survey site, to see if others were having the same negative experiences I was. I had to register to participate in the discussion, so that's why I joined. The fact that Mylot was paying to participate almost kept me from signing up, since I am suspicious of things like that. I am actually still reserving total judgement until I see money in my paypal account! lol But again that was not what I came for. And I stayed because I keep getting sucked into discussions, there are discussions on every topic imaginable. I have noticed that for the most part, people seem to be much nicer than on other forums, where you really have to watch what you say for fear of being attacked. I have not really seen anything like that here, sure people disagree but it seems to be respectful for the most part.

I do have the same observation, people here are more polite than the other members in some forums i know.

I joined myLot out of curiousity--I didn't think I could make money just expressing my opinions! I like to interact with people from all over, and myLot allows me to do so. Right now, the money is a HUGE perk (although $10 a month won't get you much...like 2 gallons of gas!). I can be who I truly am and if someone doesn't like that, tough patootie!

I first became a member with mylot, for the money. I think that most of the members here became a member for that reason. But now that I have been a member with mylot for over 9 months, I am here because it is a good place to make friends and to share views and to just chat. Also it is a good place for me to vent, not that I do that often, but I know I can and that alone helps. I also enjoy to hear how other people live, especially the people who live over seas from me. But to be honest, I still must be doing it for the money too, because here it is at the end of the month and I am thinking about how many discussions and responses I can post yet before cut off.

I agree with you that earning while sharing your opinion or simply starting discussions are the first few reasons in joining mylot. Now, I consider it as an outlet and way of learning from other people. My hubby is happy for I have found other way of "talking" since sometimes he gets tired debating with me.

Simply put,Mylot is more than just a money-making and discusion site;it's educative and informative.It's full of fun and facts.Well,I'm not concerned about the money aspect of it,though it matters too.But I've been inspired so much by the different thinkings and judgements that I see daily in the site.Mylot is the right place to meet the world in a rather simple,direct way.
