I thought it would be fun to find out how much free time other people have. I have a good amount. I only work 5 hours a day, considering most of my income comes from online, so How much do you work? and How much free time you have? and How much of that free time is used online? Just curious :) And I just joined myLot and am accepting new friends ;)

Right now in my life I have found that I have nothing but free time. Free time to do anything I want whenever I want. I just turned 54 years old and have bascially retired after working for 32 years. I have been blessed by God that I don't have to work I always thought that as long as you worked from School to at least 50 years of age that you shouldn't have to work after that and be able to enjoy retirement. To many people work and work to their 60's and then die before they can collect their pensions or social security. I also believe that people who retire early need to have hobbies to keep them entertained and happy. I do have hobby that keep me busy such as, reading, writing, gardening and making candles.

Thats awesome! I wish you could talk to my Grandparents, since they have the assets and investments to have retired years ago, but seem to like the busy lifestyle, even at their age. (65) It seems, they feel they would do nothing if it was not for their jobs. My grand father fixes perkins flags, manages his own storage unit company and does private house design. Not sure how he does it. Me, I would rather work online and keep workings towards freedom, from the workplace.

I think alot of people feel that if they stopped working they wouldn't know what they would do with their lives. Most of these types of people don't have hobbies or goals. Like I would love to start traveling more next year. I already have a trip planned for January to be away for more then a month. Its the great life to live especially when you are still somewhat young and healthy. I'm with you freedom from the workplace is a great goal to have. I hope you get to make that wish come true for yourself at a younger age then most do.

Which I think is exactly what my grandparents are dealing with. I feel like they would feel value less. One of my goals is to take them on a vacation, since they have not taken the time to see very much, as far as traveling goes. I hope you have a fabulous time on your vacation!!
I too wish my goals come true. I am making enough for now, but work everyday to increase my earnings as quickly but effectively as possible. I do not want to rush anything but at the same time I want to become successful quickly.

I have a lot of free time on Tuesdays because I only need to attend a 2 hour lecture in school. Overall, as usual, I'm free on weekends but most of the weekdays, I'm not very free, almost occupied. On Wednesdays, my lesson starts at 12pm up to 5pm.

Yikes! You seem to be a very busy individual. I used to have a similar lifestyle but did not enjoy having my time constantly occupied, so I changed it. Working online has freed up a lot of my time, so I get to go out a lot now, but keep up the work. I am sure you will find benefits in all the work your putting in. :)

Well, good for you. You have loads of free time and you make the bulk of your money online? As for me, I don't consider myself to have any real free time since I have children. If I have time to myself, I basically have to take it, if you know what I mean. There aren't any hours of the day when there isn't nothing for me to do - in the way of family and household tasks.

Yea, My uncle taught me all kinds of tricks and helpful hints to make money online, since it is what he does for a living. It pays the bills plus some so I am happy with it. I understand not having free time, not that I have kids, but i still understand.
The one thing I always hated doing, is household tasks, so good for you, keep up the work!!! :)

I do have lots of free time at work. My work doesn’t come until after lunch, so I usually have the mornings free. And when it arrives, I only spent at most an hour with it. So I spend most of my time at work here at Mylot. I was here at Mylot with the aim of making the most out of my idle time at work.
Before I found Mylot, most of us in our office just surf the internet and chat online with our friends. I used to participate in forums where I join in discussions and try to help other people. I didn’t know that in fact you can earn while participating in discussions, not until I found Mylot. I realize I am doing something that I like to do at the same time earn from it. I am just so lucky to have found Mylot.

I have a good bit of free time (thats why I'm here right now lol). I just joined myself. I was bored surfing around the web looking for something to get into that might make a little money or, just at least give me something to do, and I found MyLot. I work managing IT for small private high school, and the rest of the time I mostly work online.

I know what you mean. If I am going to just search around, I my as well commit to a place (myLot) that pays me for my contribution. I actually make most of my money online, I have a job, but I only have it because I like it. Otherwise I spend my time perfecting my tutorial, which is yet to be released.

Welcome to myLot. I have loads of free time. Am retired but working just a little bit online to earn a few extra dollars each week. The last couple of years I helped our daughter with her little girl by babysitting on a regular basis. It has been fun and enjoyable.

Hi Bopboop,
Welcome to Mylot. Free time? Not so much of it these days. I work 4 ten hour shifts a week...2nd shift. Then I have my 16 yr old that needs rides everywhere as well as my 24 yr who is 8 months pregnant and doesn't drive. Then there are all the errands etc. It's all good. I keep busy. I hop on here when I can and it's relaxing. Well, I hope to see you around in discussions here. Have a great day.

Right now, I have to say that I don't really have a lot of free times, as I am a university student, and it's the end of the semester for me. So, I have a lot to do, which is why I don't have a lot of free time. However, once my exams are done, I will be on holiday and have more free time. It does depend on the time.

I work 5 days a week mon to fri 8 hrs a day and most of my time were spent online after work. And just the same it's my first endeavor for this kind of stuff "mylot". I hope i can be more productive earning online than just browsing and posting stuff to other social network.
