Hi there, guys.:-) I realized that most offline jobs here in my country require 8 hours of a days work. That is from 8 a.m to 5 p.m. The employees are earning as little(or as much as $42/day). The work loads are not easy and there is always a superior who is always watching their back plus alot more of stress. I get to wonder if I'll be spending that much time here on Mylot and exerting the same efforts as offline job, what would be my compensation? Are you guys want to find out, too? If so, please bear with me. I can't do it alone since I'll be needing your responses to keep me going for the next 8 hours. My clock starts ticking now!!!!

Hello Eureka! I think if you go for an off line job, you will earn more than mylot. I mean if you work on mylot for 8 hours (which is not an easy task) you may not be able to earn more than $ 10 in a day (this is my perception). Mylot cannot be primary source of earning because you do not get as much earnings here, as you would get for the same amount of labor/work in an off line job. Rest depends upon you, what do you prefer. My best wishes are with you. :-) Deepak

Hello, my dear.:-) Wow! That was quite a quick response. Thank you for being the first person to hit this discussion up.:-) I understand that, my dear. I am not really expecting that I'll be getting more here from Mylot than an offline job. I was just wondering if what is the rate of my compensation here compared to an offline job given the same efforts and time. But here's one thing that I have not done consistently in my offline job, enjoying as much as I enjoy "working" here. Thank you so much, Deepak. Have a wonderful day.

actually your earnings for $42/day is already big enough coz normally in my country the normal salary here is $15/day unless your one of the officer in the company or a professor. having that salary for 8 hours for me is already enough thinking that its a regular income and yet theres not much work load in the office. if your going to use that time or perhaps more time than that in mylot then i guess you can have $42 dollars but for a month unless you have lots of referrals who also earned big from here as you need to work hard here and having a dollar per day here will cost you more than 8 hours i guess.

Hi homeshoppers! Just for information, eurekafemme is from our country too. Yes I agree, the salary she mentioned is above the minimum wage... Well $15 a day looks very IMPOSSIBLE for me to reach here in mylot even if I extend beyond the 8 hours... There was a challenge before here about 100 post a day, and I think that would eat 8 hours already which is equivalent to more or less one dollar a day in mylot...

hi eurekafemme you will not make anywhere near that much here on mylot, I may make about thirty dollars a month. no this is not a get rich place, its a social network with modest earnings where we can talk and enjoy and share and care but you are not going to make the wages you would make working in the real world. sorry to bust your bubble but even with eight hours a day you will not net much over a cou ple of dollars a day, and it will wear you out so be realisitc. if you need much money fast you need to get an ordinary job. this will not do it. if you want fun and enjoyment and some pin money mylot is great for that.

Hello, Hatley. :-) As always, you are giving me the most sensible advise.Geez, thanks for that.:-) You have bursted my bubbles, though.. Well, i realized that, too. I used to spend time here at Mylot for almost 5 hours and I only got a dollar for that. However, I wasn't really putting much extra effort since I was doing other things as well.:-) You are right,I might get tired sitting here all day long and I may not be able to sustain this challenge. Anyway, I am not planning to make a career out of Mylotting, my dear. LOL. Just like you said, I am just having fun and enjoyment. But, I might as well find out the answer to my curiosity.:-) And, thank you for riding on to this childish agenda.I really do appreciate it. Have a wonderful day, Hatley.:-)

Hello, Allen.:-) Though I am taking this seriously just to get a valid answer to my curiosity but I am not pressuring myself. LOL. Well, this challenge also depends on the number of responses I'll be getting. Or else, I'll be screening every single discussions here in Mylot to keep me going. Thank you.:-)

Hi Eurekafemme, earning 42 dollars per day out here is not feasible! Even if we come to every discussion. :) But if you want my cooperation, you shall have it. :) I promise, I will be there at your every discussion. :)

Hi, It's a nice way to draw attention.Yes,it's to spend time in MyLot rather than bearing the stress of workload.The best part of MyLot is it relieves the pressure of meeting the deadlines and there is none to warn you.You can work according to your preferences and you get rewarded for your honest effort.Hence it's good MyLotting.

Hi there, Yoursjannat.:-) Thank you for sharing your comments with us. Yes, it is very different working here in Mylot. There's no pressure even if you are to exert the same effort the way you do in an offline job plus you can take its course the way you exactly prefer it. And, I do agree that you will get a fair reward for your honest work, no doubt about it because I have proven it already.:-) Welcome to Mylot and have a great day.:-)

i don't think it is possible for anyone to earn that much, even if we say that the minimum wage is 10 us dollars. it's too impossible here. i have a regular work so i really do not depend on mylot. but even during office hours, i can mylot. when i get home at 6pm, i also go online at once or when i am free. i post and post and post up until 11 or 12 midnight. and if we will get the average time i am spending on mylot, 8 hours i guess, i only earn about 1 us dollar (that is the most that i have earned in a day so far). it is really not possible to make mylot your only job. you cannot live doing mylot alone. probably, if you have 1,000 referrals and all of them are active, earning at least a dollar a day, plus your own daily activity earnings?

8 hours?? I see that the discussion was created 4 hours ago, so you have 4 hours left. Hehe. So how was it? I tried to do that last year, and well, let's just say that I had made a lot of comments and discussions that I would normally make in a spam of 2 weeks. hahaha.

hello eureka, I don't think so. Even if how much effort will we exert here in mylot,we cannot attain the same amount of money that we earn offline. Mylot is giving us some earnings while enjoying having inter-action with other mylotters. I can say,this site is one of the best extra income to come while making friends too.

42 dollars a day? Well in our country that is big. That is actually above the minimum wage... That salary you cited are for officers or for those who are in supervisory levels... if you are talking about Regular OFFICE jobs... Anyways, I doubt it eurekafemme! Even if you spend 8 hours here with and even extend more than 8 (OT), you would definitely not going to earn that much here in mylot. Even if you post long responses or discussion, you wont. Anyways, you can try it your self if you want. But as for me, it is impossible... Good luck to you eurekafemme! Happy mylotting! Enjoy!
