As a new meber here in mylot I ahve meta lot of Filipinos in the site. They are doing their best to reach pay out here in the site. But did you ever think that 10 dollars is just 450 pesos if the exchange rate is 45. Lucky enough if the exchange rate is 50 because it would turned out to 500 pesos. I can see many of us are addicted here. Do you think it does not sound unfair to us? Or we just really enjoy the site? Then, for us to withdraw the money to our paypal account, you should have at least credit card, and with us its only EON Card that we can link and it cost 350 pesos, so what will happen to our earnings?Do you think its sounds unfair?

Maybe you could leave the money in your PayPal account and pay for things online using PayPal where it's accepted... Dunno otherwise.. It's a bit of a dilemma if that EON Card you're talking costs almost all your earnings. I guess all that's left is to enjoy the site

As a member of mylot and a filipino at the same time, I knew for a fact that 10$ is just quite an amount of money... I mean, it`s not really that big and I could honestly say that it`s not really enough. But come to think of it, this is just actually suppose to be a social network where everyone could join and share their opinions and ideas in several discussions or topics, and a place to gain more friends online... I never really think of this stuff as something that would make me rich or a sideline somehow. I am just here for fun. With regards to the money that you`re going to be paid for through paypal, I guess the best thing you should do with that since I suppose most of us don`t have credit cards, is just to save it there... and come a time that it`s quite big enough, then I suggest for an online shopping. Yes, I do use my paypal account for online shopping.

Hi, I think you can withdraw it to other banks as well for free if it's more than Php7000 already. You don't need an EON card anymore. I haven't tried withdrawing money yet though. And yes, $10 is very cheap! It's just chump change. But money's still money. :) So I'll keep mylotting. :)

I'm a Filipino, but I don't think it sounds unfair. Why? I get to exchange ideas with people all over the world on almost any topic that we can think of, and enjoy it. I don't count my earnings here. So what if it's only $10? I'm earning more than $100 a month in my freelance job, and that's only in dollars. If you're here to make a living, MyLot is not the place for you. This is just for extra income, and it's rare to find a source of income that you can enjoy at the same time. As for your comment that an EON card costs 350 pesos, not it doesn't cost that. That 350 pesos you deposited is yours and not the bank's. Besides, posting quality information in MyLot could net you more than $40 a month. what does it take to post your opionions anyway? Well, the PHP450 I get in every payout is a small amount next to the satisfaction and enjoyment I get here in MyLot.

its really hard to decide whether or not unfair because all we have to do is post some quality informative discussion and thats not reaaly bad at all and for some its just a hobby for some informative exchange and the good thing is the site MyLot really pays its loyal users that really contribute to a more lively fun informative discussion always fresh ideas and having to know someone everyday is a relaxing getaway in hard office days.

It's always good to have some people disagree with good stuff. It's the spice of life. It's boring if it's always a good thing you hear. :) But sometimes, I don't know what to say to those kind of people that would just love to complain everyday instead of looking at the brightside of life. Like I always say, life's simple don't make it complicated. If you don't like what you're doing, who's keeping you? Go figure.

Sounds not good, but there's nothing we can do about the value of dollar to peso, I'm thinking about this sometimes, but i think I'm addicted to Mylot that's the reason maybe i stay. Anyway what is an EON Card? can one here give me what EON Card is? and how can i have one? Thanks a lot.

Hello rberon, I am also from Philippines, I am not earning much from this online opportunities, but I don't there is unfairness. It is our own choice to join this site, and we should be lucky we are paid. Aside from that, that $10 is just a minimum amount, if you are active you can get greater than 10. And also there are lots of other online earning opportunities. I would also like to emphasize that not all members here are after of the money only, but more on the enjoyment and the experience of meeting people, being able to express our thoughts and opinions and of course learn from what we have read,, being able to help others when they need advises.

What kind of unfairness are you talking about and where it is? In fact you are being paid for making a post and you are not investing a single cent to do that but only time and effort. So I cannot see any unfair of it unless you have something to tell that I have missed into. Let me know what you think and what's in your mind?

Ummmm... Well, $10 is just the lowest payout here rberon1985! Actually, others earning more than that. Others have $15 as their monthly payout, some $20, some even $25.. So it's just a matter of how good a myLotter is. One tip for you my "kaibigan". If you wanna earn good here in myLot, then post quality posts. Minimum of Four lines per post will do... Then, have as many friends as you can... Enjoy myLotting! God Bless!!
