In your opinion, how do you know that a money making program is working out for you? Besides getting paid, do you find it difficult or boring or taking up too much time?

There are so many things that affect our online money oriented activities, following is the list of reasons why I am working online: 1. I "have to" spend some time online and if I am not here on mylot, obviously, I will be spending my time on websites like Facebook that will be of no use. 2. There are times when I get fed up of my life and I feel like running away from my name and identity, this is one of the place where I can login to at that time. 3. Earning money (even a cent per day) online is not something that everyone knows, therefore, it's a smart move which I have taken in my life and that's why I enjoy it.

Hi dollar3235 and LaraTecson If you mean by mylot alone, well I dun have enough praises for mylot. I love mylot. I go to mylot everytime I am bored. To be paid for my being here, how can anybody not see its a bonus above bonuses!

@LaraTecson: In my case, it's not like that, I have never discussed about this website to anyone, if they know it's good, if they don't then also it wont affect me, I don't want referrals, my main priority is to be anonymous and enjoy the place. As far as your friends are concerned, it's not that they don't want to join mylot because it could be a scam, it's because if they join mylot (on your suggestions), it'll be indirectly agreeing to the fact that you are more clever than them and that's why you had the problem. @momof3kids: No doubt, yes, even I spend my time here on myLot only when I get bored of my real life, it's like living a digital life with a different name and with people who will not hurt you. It's completely a positive experience when you are here on mylot, I'm not saying that we don't have conflicts here but yes most of the times, it's pretty cool place to be and at the same time we earn money as well. I don't see any other website as good as mylot. It's a nice idea and good implementation.

True. A lot of people are hooked with social networking sites. They spend their day talking with their friends online, completely unaware of the fact that there are more productive things you could do online. I have asked some of my friends to join my here in Mylot. But all of them said that I will be just wasting my time since this is just a scam. I have explained to them that Mylot is a legitimate site and have already paid their members for a long time. Still they did not believe me. I did not push it anymore. It's not my loss anyway. :D

I say always check it out before you join that way you don't waste time and energy into it. That's the easiest way to do it.

I think when sites have gained reputation they become more reliable. It is a pity that in the cyber world, the number of good sites seem much lesser than scam sites.

For me the only online money making sites I am kinda active in are for Amazon gift cards. I would suggest not spending too much time on any site as that can only lead to boredom and getting burnt in the long run.

Hi TeamCholent Thanks for responding! What do you mean by getting burnt in the long run? Financially or socially or both?

Burnt out like you are just sick and tired of the site.

I know exactly what you mean. I signed up to surveys some time ago and got so tired of answering the same questions over and over that I finally gave them up.

I don't know..I just feel it..(^^) If I don't try then I will not know whether it will working out or not. Boring and taking up too much time?? I don't think so as I am doing it whenever I got free time. Any program will be good as long as I can learn and get something from it..(^^)

Hi CTHanum Thanks for responding! I have that attitude too that I will try and see if it works out, except I will only consider paid programs. It is a bigger risk but I am old so I dun have time for a lot of free programs.

I do know that such a money making site works for me is that it actually pays me and I do have flexible time when I want to try to make money or not. It doesn't disrupt my real life activities and is not that demanding and hard to do. No pressures involved or no bosses around makes it something great an earning opportunity that it is. That is my principle in trying to look for online earning endeavors. As long as it takes only my leisure time, it is a nice earning opportunity for me.

Hi AgentGulaman Thanks for responding! Your response made me realise something. Even if I thought free programs arent good, they are much much much better than spending your time doing bad stuff like thinking how to steal and worse if we actually act on the bad thoughts. I apprecaite your answer, thank you!

Well, that is quite right! Trying to be productive with your time instead of using it to be idle or do things that are bad or promotes inefficiency or wrongdoing is always the way to go. What you just realized is a thought worth pondering on.

well my freind it is very hard to know about such a site as we know we always come know about these sites when we will get paid or we are at the minimum payout amount....... ya its boring but what we can do........... but we have one option we must have to first read the condition carefully than we can somewhere can be escaped from such sites

Hi princelove Thanks for responding! I dun agree that there is nothing you can do too, like LaraTecson has said. Even if you read the condition carefully once it turns scam, there is no turning back. You have invested your time and there your time is wasted. Best is when you do research and find those which have lasted for a long time.

I judge a program over the long haul. If it is consistent then it is a winner. If it leaves me time in my life for life, it is a winner. If it brings in enough that I can meet my bills, it is a winner. I am always open to the ideas of others.

Hi GardenGerty Thanks for responding! I cannot agree enough! I am open to the ideas of others too. I think if we dont we will stop learning. Its nice when I get enlightened.

I usually do my calculation how much I could make per day without referrals..if program needs sponsor and how much i have to invest and time it will take to return my seed money.I do takes part in money making program but I usually do my maths before joining them.free program is always best but unfortunately there is not enough free program to give us good earning.

I am not that much involved on money making sites as i don't like to waste my precious time to make small money.I an only active on MYLOT because i like to make new friends and interact with friends over here.if i had joined MYLOT to earn money then i would have left it long back.

Actually moneymaking online is not much working for me. Mostly I use to get 20 -30 cents a day. But still I would like to continue the same. Because it throws away all my stress and tension. I know only triond and mylot. If you know better earning site than these please let me know. so that I can work on those.

Hi siri26 Thanks for responding! I do not know any free sites that will make you rich. But if it takes away your stress and tension then in a way that is rich too. I do know better earning sites but those I know are paid ones.

I can say that it is working for me if I get what I am expecting from it. Uhm it would be nicer if all money making sites don't have a minimum payout and just pay members right away.
