Are we this broke or just lazy?

Are we that broke or just lazy that we spend way to much time on these sites clicking, reading and writing just to make a few pennies. I am not downing anyone because I have been doing it for about a year. I get super excited when I get a 10 dollar gift card like I was poor. Maybe I just don't understand my addiction.

I just started, but for me I think its a question of having so much spare time on my hands....I mean, if i'm going to be sitting here surfing the web, why not make some money and have some good discussions?

I am the same way. If I am online chatting with people why not earn some money at the same time. It also gives me a little extra cash to put into my savings account. I hope to get married soon and every little bit helps when it comes to having to pay for it.

I hear you! And, in lots of ways I feel the same. I am thinking about doing the tax preparer course from Amscot in October/November to get ready for the tax payers. They pay really good in our area. I could make more money in 3 1/2 months than I could ten years on Mylto or anywhere. Some people earn up to $10,000 in that time. That would be more than enough money for me, as I don't need anything more than a part time job, anyway. I am just here,cause I haven't done that yet. Once I do that, I won't be here. Except for maybe weekends and the non-tax season. But I won't really need the money from Mylot.

I am also wondering why people stick to this kind of work where we only end up having a dollar at the end of the day? But then, when I was into it, I realize that it is pretty addicting that you are not thinking anymore of how much you earn for the day but just reply and post because I really like it. I am not so much concern of how much I earned although I also checked my earnings every now and then but my point is.. I really enjoy the discussion. Good luck...
