What are you planning to do with your money earned online?

I know so many people on here that go online to make a few extra bucks every month. They go on many other sites just to get this money. But I don't usually hear what kinds of things you guys are saving for? Whether it be for bills, a TV, or a new car you've been saving up for! I personally am saving for a Macbook Pro. I just need a few extra bucks every now and then until I reach my goal. So tell me. What are you saving for?

I just want to pay up my mobile and internet bills.... For now I am not earning more than that.... But may be its time to boost up my earnings.... If I can successfully do that then I might plan to buy something like a cool Cell Phone or a PS

Dude.... I am sorry if I have said it that way.... But my parents can afford to do both of those two... And they sure will be willing to do as well... But I just dont want it to be a burden for them.... I mean these small things if I can fill up, then it would be good for them to feel that their son is earning something.... I am still studying dude... I just want to pay the net bill so that it saves about 1000 INR(app 20$) for some other things... Thats all.... Once again sorry if I have mislead you...

Dude... I am sorry if I have said it that way.... But my parents can afford to do both of those too.... And they surely will be willing to do so as well.... But I just dont want it to be a burden for them.... I mean internet for me is to just download movies and all.... and rarely for any project..... so its just nothing other than entertainment..... So I feel its good if I can earn what we have to pay for the internet.... And coming to a cell phone... I already have one which my father bought for me.... a nokia touch phone.... I just said mobile phone because I am always amazed by the new models... and i like to change mobiles every year if possible... So i dont want such burdens on my parents.... Thats it.... Once again... I am sorry if I have mislead you.....

That really sucks! I'm so fortunate to still have my parents pay both of those things. I really do feel lucky. But hope this works out for you, and you can get a good cell phone! Just don't try to make this internet your only job.

Actually, the money earned is usually used to invest in something else later on in the cyberspace. I treated the money earning in cyberspace just an experience for now. But after much exploration, I think you could in fact make quite a lot of money that you can withdraw and put in your bank for savings and used for other expenditures in your life later on.

Cyberspace just means on the web. Not really on stocks, but there are a lot of other investments you need to put in such as upgrades or buying referrals, etc. Stocks and HYIP are risky so I don't really recommend them unless you know them well.

What do you mean by investing it into Cyberspace? Is that like a website? Or do you put your money into stocks? I hear of money people on here who put a little bit of money earned toward stocks. I don't even know what stocks are or how you earn money by them though.

Well, for me, I was aiming for a good high quality noise-cancelling headphone and I had been aiming for that for a long time already. Perhaps I might buy something online but that would be quite impossible.

Oh I've always wanted to buy those. But they're so expensive sometimes that I just have to settle for the cheaper ones. But the effect that they give with the music is so worthwhile! It really lets you hear the music without any distractions or disruptions. I've heard of Skullcandy, which is a real good brand for noise-cancelling headphones. Also, Beats by Dr. Dre is a good brand too. They were created by Dr. Dre so you know they're good! And Lady Gaga promotes it too! But hopefully you get your noise-cancelling headphones! Good luck!

I am trying to do the exact same thing. I have only started to save money for the last two months, so I do not have a big sum right now. Hopefully, this site helps me to earn that laptop. I really want the 13 inch Macbook Pro. I've been using Windows for quite a while, but everyone says that the Macbook is the way to go. Even if it is pricey, it is definitely worth it!

Welcome aboard to earning money online! It's actually pretty hard to get a good sum of money online, but if you remain persistent, you can definitely get some hard earned cash at the end of the month. And you can use it on everyday things that you do not have to worry about. Such as you saying gas. But do not rely too much on online earnings. But if you get enough, it is good to use it for gas and such. Good luck online.

I plan to save some money for when i get older, buy what i need and want, help my mom pay some bills, donate what i can to the church and 3rd world countries.

That is so generous of you! I admire people like you in this world. People that give back to others and the less fortunate. You are very giving. You give money to your mom for raising you, to the church, and to third world countries. I try to donate as much as possible, but sometimes I get too selfish with my own money and keep it for myself. Hopefully I can get over these bad habits and think about the blessings upon me and how I should share those blessings with those less fortunate.

I don't make much money online. I am doing that as a sideline and just for relaxation in the evenings after I get back home from work. The most I make online is $ 50 a month. That is just a little help for shopping for some basic needs at home.

$50 a month is pretty good. I'm not getting much on myLot but it is good for putting aside dollars at the end of the month. And it might build up so that I can use it for other purposes. But I've never earned $50 a month. Can you please share how you earned that much money?

I would like to buy a game console but it seems that will take too long to reach that kind of money. You know what i need a faster way to make money.
• United States

A lot of people are buying game consoles too! Well, they're saving money from them. At least you get some dollars coming from myLot to help you with buying that. If you don't already have one, you should get a job. Get some more cash in to help you with that game console. It's totally worth it by the way.

hello keeegan_ess, I guess for me it buy gas or get some extra groceries. I do not make a lot sometimes I get once every two months not like every month. I do not make a lot like other people here or at other websites and I awlays wonder did it take them 6 months to make a hundred dollars or was 1 month and how do they do it what trick do they use besides tags and links etc... and seo websites etc... they have to be doing other things to make that kind of money do you agree or disagree? Just my opinion not saying it right or wrong way. Thanks and have a very nice evening Sincerley Unique16

I also use this for extra cash. And I'm just a regular user who doesn't make much than the next guy. I see so many people on here saying they got so much a month. When I rarely make anything per month! They probably have other sites they use to get this money. But I'm not as wanting to do those things as them. I'm fine here on myLot earning simple money.

Money earned online is so little,i often used the money to buy some objects which used in daily life.Life Products cost little money and i can afford to buy with the earnings online.
• United States
11 Nov 10
You should think about saving for something big! But using that money for small products is also good use. Things that you use daily and could save lots of money on!

Well i use the money that I earn online to pay for college expenses.I have a part time job on the weekends sat and sunday and i make some money but to earn just a bit more each month really helps me out for paying for my meals and transportation.I really have a lot of time paying for that stuff and with the mounting expenses it can be quite a challenge.Even that 15 to 30 extra month i earn on the net is a real life saver and i will try to find even more ways to earn online in order to boot my income.

I totally agree. I have an uncle who is a college student and he is struggling so much with money. He tries to acquire any amount of money possible! He even started collecting coins he found on the floor. Most people are really desperate for money nowadays and would do anything. How did you earn your $15-$30 a month? From just myLot or other websites? Please explain!

I have some DVDs I really want to buy, but I don't have a lot of money right now, so that's what I'm working toward.
• United States
11 Nov 10
Buying DVD's? Wow. I'm usually not into the DVD thing. I usually don't get why people have so many DVD's. Hopefully, I'm not offending you by writing this! But I just don't get why people love to have such a vast collection of DVD's.

I put most of it in my child's education fund. It is not much, but right now, it is all I can afford to put towards her education. Before I had my child, the money went towards whatever project we wanted to do next.

That's really so sweet of you! Having a child is a real burden sometimes, but it so pays off in the long run! And education funds are really high as of now. It's really hard to pay it off. Especially in college! It's a good thing you're saving up the money now.
