I would save it until I had a lot more to spend like maybe up to $30 or $40 and either buy something for my son or spoil it on myself :)

whats that 6082 near your name ? Is it the number of posts that you have made this month ? If so how much have you earned this month ?

It's the total number of posts I have made on mylot since I joined 9-10 months ago. The most I ever make each month is the minimum and a little bit more.

That would be 35 when converted to my local currency and with that I can fuel up my car for half a week. Nothing much but that is much better than nothing. prices of things are increasing all the time and the value of money is decreasing... I hat inflation!

Hello dear laydee. If I were given an extra ten dollars, I would save it without using it untill I have got enough to buy another laptop for me to use. That would be my plan and thought. hehe. Thanks.

Wow that's a good scheme. I have read that in "The Richest Man in Babylon". We're actually practicing that in our company. That's a great way to have savings.
As for the 10.. what if you can't save it up. You need to spend it, what would you spend it for?

There was a period of time when I had only $10 to spend a week. It covers most of my transport costs and the rest was spent on food that allow me to last for the week. I am glad I had that experience and it makes me treasure what I have more now. and Thank goodness those difficult times are over.

I have got many thing to buy with 10$.if i got that amount the first thing i would be buying would be is a gift for my parents.the second priority would be to give a treat to my friends.the other month i would be using that money to buy some decorative items for my room.maybe at certain months,i would prefer saving that amount.again for me there are countless choices.i would go for movies.parties and many things.i would say i would be having countless options,but then the money wont be big enough to satisfy all that.

When you reach your nominated goal as mine is $10, once you reach that goal... if your goal is there..it is automatically transfered into Paypal or what ever, and I usually just let it sit in Paypal until I have $150 then there is no $1 fee to transfer it to my bank account...
