Haha, I wasn't even really trying! But, I was just notified that pickjack paid me a grand total of 8 cents to my paypal account! Haha. I'm not complaining, it all adds up, but I think it's kind of funny that I wasn't even trying to really make money from them and got paid! Well, well, mylot's payment is coming up soon too! Woohoo! My goal is to make 20 dollars by then. I have 17 dollars right now. Think I can make it?

congrats on your payment i got paid from them today as well..except my earnings came from my referrals not me... i stopped that site a long time ago because if i wasnt active everyday then the earnings would decrease and it just wasnt worth it to me. i have heard that it has changed since then but i just have not even thought about trying the site since then

I just joined pickjack about a month ago. I go on it every day and still my balance drops...I just dont understand it. The first day, I lost over 20 cents and was mad because it takes so much work to make that little bit. It seemed the first 50cents was pretty quick. After that, it was hard to earn 5 cents and every day , I was loosing about 2-3 cents. They need a better FAQ section.

Yes, they still delete your earnings if you aren't active everyday, but they seem pretty slow about it. It's not like they take money everyday. More like the first day you aren't active they subtract a penny and then it stays like that for awhile. So, you can make 5 cents lose 1 cent. It's still progress in my opinion. but it is slower than mylot and mypage5 so I deffinatly save pickjack for when I'm bored or need a break from the other stuff I do. Haha.

Of course you can make it! . And I agree, every little bit counts. By the way - do you have a premiere or personal account on PayPal? It seems like every transaction that's under 50 cents that I receive is completely eaten up by those nasty PayPal fees (I have a premiere account, though). It's nice that they didn't take any fees out of your PickJack transaction.

If you are having a premier account paypal will certainly charge for but for personnel account there is no charge even for 1 cent

Doesn't a premier account cost money? I have a personal account because I'm very poor. Haha. So, I just deal with that. Thanks for responding!

Hello Dismalgrin,I had also just recieved a mail that I had been paid .14cents by pickjack.But,when I login to my paypal account,I didn't see any money paid by pickjack.I will wait and see. I was never active nor participating and due to that they had deducted few more cents,one needs to be active.Good day!

I only got on pickjack in the first place to review it for my website. Now that I know it pays I can give it a positive review! I only got on there when I was bored anyhow. But, I'm glad to know that it works. I just have a hard time understanding how it works. It seems too simple to me.

You have 20 days to make money for the next payment. I think you and I are at the same train but my goal is to achieve 30 compared to your 20. I am at 17 too! Hmmm, pickjack pays. I can't remember what this site is for. I think you have discussed it before also but if it is paying then I would like to join it too!

LoL, I wouldn't spend too much time on pickjack, it pays... pennies. Haha. But, when I need a break from the major typing I do at some of the other sites I'm on. I will slip on over to pickjack and answer some questions. Post a few questions. I'm not really trying to break a dollar there because that would take A LOT of work. I don't think their pay period is monthly either because I just got paid and they posted their next payout as April 11th. So, that's cool too. Thanks for your response!

I have not even answered a single question in pickjack and i received 19 cents into my paypal account and may be because i have 2 referals but referal earning are very much lesser in pickjack and i am planning not to answer for the next time also.

You are lucky to get referals. All the money I make online is from hard hard work. Unfortionatly referals seem very hard to come by for me. Thanks for responding and good luck!

Congratulations! Surprises can really be very thrilling. That sure is a lot better than none. And that proves at least that pickjack will pay and not just make you waste your time and deny what you deserve. $20 is way beyond my goal, i'm actually just hoping to at least get the minimum payout. Considering that there's still a few days away your $20 will surely be still reachable.

LoL, well, I'd like to pay for my internet with my paypal account... but if the day comes that buying a house would be cheaper... Oh what a say day that would be (well, good for me, but bad for the economy).

Hmmm, I think I made payout around about the 200 post range. Keep your eye out for tasks too... I'm thinking that they come on mondays. I could be wrong but, that's what I'm thinking.

[i]Hello dismalgrin, Congratulations on your first payout. It is small but you are making great progress. I was surprise to see you earning 17 dollars already here at mylot with less than 400 posts. You must be doing some very good posting and very good responses on you discussions. I am sure you will reach 20 dollars before the end of this month. Again congratulations and enjoy your online earning. Regards.[/i]

Yap, I was not able to try the task. Hopefully mylot will continue to have that stimulus package. It is a great help to increase your earning if you were able to complete a task on time.
• United States

Thanks for your response. 5 dollars of my earnings comes from some tasks that I did. Other than that, I make it my goal to responde to every post I can (in a day, sometimes I don't make it through the list.Haha!) And make the posts as long and fully of quality as I can. I think that the key on here is the longer posts because I've made 60 cents in one day with just 3 posts! Haha. Either that or Mylot made a booboo with my account. Haha.

That's Awesome, I never heard of pickjack but yeah thats awesome news well at least you got your money and found out there not a scam. :) I know some people just want money like crazy and they get upset and say oh man this isn't good I will never get paid and make enough off line but Pennys and cents do add up trust me. I join sites like cash-hi and stuff and My Paypal account add up slowly but it did. The most they ever paid me was 22 cents at once. haha.. it was good for me. But when Igot paid from Mylot I got $11.75 I was super happy and getting paid for something as simple as posting discussions you can't beat that buddy haha. Well yeah I got like $12.74 in my paypal right now and I'm going to try to get lots and let it build up. :) Well yeah keep it up. your money will add up and mylot is a good place to make some extra money. Well yeah take care and happy mylotting Payout

Haha, wow never thought about the vacuuming the penny amazing haha.... .. wow.. wowow... .. very wowow.. I save pennies but yeah but it's time to save haha..
• United States

Thanks for your response! (By the way, I love your avatar.) 12 dollars and 74 cents? I'd be totally shopping! Haha. Yes, penny work is frausterating, but I will keep at it because it only takes 100 pennies to make a dollar! Haha. So, that's the way I look at it, both online and around my home. I pull out my hair when I accidently vaccum up a penny! Haha. That gets me, I think... that penny could have helped me save that dollar! And that dollar could have gone towards my electric bill! Arggg.

Thanks for your response! Wow, over 20 dollars on mylot? Did you do a lot of tasks? I did 2 of the better paying ones, and then I did the eWoss tool bar one. So, I just made 5 dollars and 10 cents there. Haha. Then I got on yesterday and found another task, but it was only worth 1 cent. Oh well, I took that one too. Haha. Anyhow I have about 2 more dollars to go to reach my goal. I'm pretty sure that I will make it. Next month I'm going to raise my goal, but I don't know if I should raise it by 5 dollars (incase there aren't any tasks) or 10 dollars (just go for the gold!) Haha. I duuno. Thanks for your response, again!

Wow! Good for you, im sure you can make it! :) So how long did it took before you earned $17? It seems my earnigns are too slow. LOL. do you have any active referrals?
• United States
25 Mar 09
How long did it take me? Hmmmm, well I became a member right in the middle of last payout I believe. So, it has taken me about a month. I do not have any active referals... I don't have any referals at all! Haha. But, I do try to respond to as many posts as possible everyday. I don't worry about starting posts too much because you have to have a popular post to really get money off of it and that's a hit or miss thing. If I really want to know something or need to announce something (hehe, this post case in point) then I will start a post. But, I try to focus on responding to others posts mostly. Oh, and I don't shy away from posts that I see where I disagree with someone strongly. I make my opinion known. I usually get on a roll and type out some nice and long responses then and those longer post pay pretty well. The more you have of those the better. Don't worry about getting your post count up. That's not what earns you on here. It's the individual posts themselves. Haha. Look at me rambling! Have fun here on mylot! Thanks for your response!

What a good site it is paying even cents to paypal, while one of the sites I'd been working for more than a year until now the 5 dollars I earned still not been paid. What is pickjack. WOW 17 Dollars at mylot, yes you can make it, you have enought time for the 3 dollars. Me I got only 6 dollars and I need 4 dollars more to make it. Still trying though am running short of my time...
