well as you read this discussion, I am asking you, yes you the one who reading this, Do you enjoy what your doing right now?. Do you like or love what you are doing? or the reason why you doing this is just to earn money? or you want learn more, learn new things, are you doing this because you want to explore the different side of you the side that tells you, who you really are, are you here to get some advise or are you here because you like to give advise to others. My reason why I am doing this is to earn money, practice my English writing and learn new things, because the best teacher is experience and the people here are sharing their experience in life, what about you?. What is the main reason why you are here.

Honestly, today is just a Mylot day as the topics thus far have held my interest and I need a break from the website I'm building and surf4credit sites and such. I like it here. For the most part folks are kool. I can learn a bit and, maybe, teach a bit..I can be a congratulatory clap on the back or a convenient shoulder. What fasinates me most about Mylot is the anonimity aspect of it but not like hiding anonimity. We're not bogged down by the silly social/genetic categories we'd normally use as our judgement base in face-to-face contact. This site is truly a meeting of the minds and emotions and that makes it a fun place to be.. Enjoy!

The first reason I joined mylot is that I want to improve mhy English and hope to make friends with native speakers.Im happy when I find that I can learn money here as well,though I hardly make any money cause Im really lazy.In fact,tonight is the first time I work here since a long long time ago.Its fun to know other people's life.And I love to give advice to those who ask.I feel good if they are helpful.Its also nice to share our experience in life.So I decide to work and have fun here as often as possible.Of course, I hope to make more money.lol Have fun!

Hi xeroeight! I have been here almost three years now! I have made some wonderful friends here that I truly care about. I even speak to some off the "Lot"! I have learned alot about different cultures and countries and many other interesting things along with making a little money doing it! I thing that it is wonderful that you are here to practice your English! I give you and alot of other people who are trying to learn English a great deal of credit for doing this because I know how difficult and confusing the English language is! I would love to learn another language myself! I know a little bit of Spanish, but would love to learn more!

Im here because of many things. At first my intention is to earn MONEY, but I have been here all the time, reading articles, and starting discussion, I realize the true meaning of this site. Not only practing my english but using it well for defining what is meant by any words we speak not only their meaning but its essence. Im here because mylot taught me to complete my personality

I'm not going to lie. The main reason that I am here is because I wanted a way to make some extra money online. But I do genuinely like posting here. I've been a part of a few message boards online throughout the years and I really enjoy getting to talk to other people about random various topics on a daily basis. I think it's a lot of fun.

When I was first given the link to this site, I admit I started out hoping to make money. It took a while before I got my first payout, but I realized that this is a great place to, like you said, "the best teacher is experience and the people here are sharing their experience in life" I have learned so much here and feel my life is better because of it..Plus I hope I have helped other as well, a give and take set up where everyone benefits, including the financial part..

I am here to earn money as my friend suggested me to join and she said that discussion is worth here so frankly I joined myLot. And absolutely, she was right and I think most of us are here just for earning part time. myLot is a wonderful and unique site which pays while you post discussion or participate in discussion. Tasks is also available sometimes which is added advantage in money making and reaching to the minimum payout. I have also made few nice friends here.

Thanks xeroright!! I think lots more mylotters are here to earn and with times they learn a lot here how to deals with some probs, helping others and doing lots more tasks if available. I think there is also one source that is photos from which one can ear but I haven't tried yet. There is also one great thing here that whenever you want to ask any question personally as well, you gets lots of answers and it depends on you if you want to use it or not..
@xeroeight (1060)

Well you are right, in this site you can express your self and get some advise and when you do it many people will sure give great advices I think I liked to try also about the photos earning, I'm gonna read the guideline first before to know more about it, well thank you for giving me an idea.

There are two main reasons you can say. One is earning money and second is , when i don’t have anything to do i am here talking and earning. I have some sort of mental satisfaction seeing increasing number of points of mine. I am not sure but i am ahead to many here and happy to see this.

Like what most people said, I also started posting here because of money. But as time flies by, I really didn't actually cared about the money (I didn't even had a payout yet). I just log-on to this site to see if there are interesting topics to post to. I make a post about it and I eagerly wait for a response. And yes, experience is the best teacher, it is good to learn from others so when the time comes that you will be the one to experience it, you already have an idea. The site is also a great way of practicing English writing. I really am having fun here at myLot, I just hope more interesting topics will be made. ^_^

well you are actually right, you will just notice that your earnings will increase day by day until you realize you earn enough to make a pay out. this is really great

almost everyone here is consistent both in reason, i think i am different, LOL actually I'm here because my boyfriend told me to join me here in this site. He told me that he can earn here in mylot. Being girlfriend I'd support him in all he did. i had seen him happy here in mylot, so I'm also happy for him. but sometimes that he just forced me to post a comment or create a discussion for the commission said there.. hehehe LOL.. honestly speaking before i do not know how to begin work of discussion and post comments because I'm the kind of person that is not good in writing and in English.. :) but my boyfriend told me that it was OK because there are no right or wrong answer here, because its only about own opinion. :) he said also that it is a way to practice my knowledge in writing and in english, and the other was i can still earn money :) when i started to make a post in comment or discussion., i told to myself it was boring and i think it is not fun., so, I'm just once to post a comment a day., and takes while making comment, i did not aware that i enjoying it.. I'm glad when i have read a different topic, i know there is the perception of different people, how they are to advise, and ask advise. you meet also a lot of people and a friend even if you have not seen them personally but you compromise the advice or opinion feel surpassed him/her more real friends.. hapPy myLotTing ?_?

my reason is basically the same as most of the posters here, to earn money. one more thing is that I can link my websites here, but I don't do that too much for the consequence of getting banned for spamming. However, as time goes by, I found that earning in mylot can't be the passive income that I'm looking for. Because it's slow. I got bored at one point. But everyday, there are interesting topics that are being posted and I can't help but share my point of view. I just found myself participating in discussions not because of the monetary reward but just for the fun of it. I also have ideas that I want to share with others and I'm pretty sure that in mylot, it will receive at least a response or two. something I rarely get in real life. It's also productive way to kill time at work. LOL.

I first joined to make some money, but once I began writing on the site, I realised how much fun it could be. I love interacting with so many different people from different countries and learning about how they live and what things are important to them.
