What, exactly, IS 'myLot'?

One thing about myLot...it is not, nor has it ever been, intended primarily as an 'earning site' though it seems many people tend to view it that way. myLot gives you money as an incentive to post here, not as a reason. I don't come online to earn, but merely to socialize, which is why I am not part of any 'earning sites'. If it is money you're looking for, then no, I couldn't recommend myLot to anyone. But after 11 years of socializing I have made several friends there...and that, to me, is the true 'value' of the site.

I am even pleased to have met some mylot people in person. I have grieved myLot friends who have passed on. There are other things I can do that pay much more than myLot, but none of them have the value this site has for friendships.

Yes, I almost forgot, losing a mylotter is a sad as losing anyone outside this cyberworld.

Depends on if you can survive an entire month on ten White Castles.... You're . The money is a bonus. The friends are the real payoff.

the money, to me, is like sprinkles on a nice piece of cake

I agree! If anyone needs money, then they should get a real job! This is a place for being with friends worldwide, laughing, sharing, getting information, or venting.

Yeah it really isn't worth sticking around here for the money. $11 or $12 a month doesn't do much for me. But it is funny because I do like to see how much I earn each day. It is like a little "challenge". Don't know why.

MyLot does it right. It's kind of what Bubblews aspired to be before they ran it into the ground. The interaction is mistaken worth it alone.

Got your point. Earning site is not applicable for MyLot coz it's rarely give me $1 a day. How can I live with $1 a day how much more with less than a dollar eh. But, on the other aspect, MyLot is an extra earning site for me coz, Mark never give a damn to pay those people who stayed up to 24 hours socializing , posting and ranting on Facebook.

You are one friend I always count on seeing around. You usually come in while I still am asleep, but I see you when I get up.

@GardenGerty Thank you ! It is because there is about ten- hour time difference between us.

I completely agree with you. I'm here because I enjoy the adult interaction I get. I enjoy all of the friends I have made. The little extra money they give is a nice bonus too.

very true - the earnings are a very low incentive factor here

The earning site is becoming an extinct creature and other sites pay just as low or are a pain in the rear to deal with. myLot is steady and reliably simple.

Well-said. The money is an incentive but it is the conversations and the company among like-minded peers that give myLot its true value.

Yup, all those friends are kind of asset for sure. I have seen your post on that other forum. I don't think people will understand that easily.

Very well said, JJ. The 5 bucks once in a while is nice, but the social interaction is much more valuable to me.

I don't mind the money at all, but I do enjoy the conversations. I just wish I could come on here more often!

Yeah, it's been a bit since I've seen you. I'm the opposite, I probably spend too much time here.

I only joined a few weeks ago, and didn't become really active till a few days ago. the pennies make me feel special, but it's nice to have a place to talk with adults.

It might seem like I'm in it for money. But I'm actually here to get people thinking.
