I still have not receive any payout yet. And I don't know when will I receive it. But I heard/read a lot of testimoties and discussions about myLotters who got their payout and I feel inspired. I'm just wondering. What will I do with my first payout if ever that happens. What about you? What did you do when you got your first payout? Did you spend it right away, what did you buy with it? Any suggestion?

Hi ruthinian.. Obviously I havent reach the minimum pay out amount. I was thinking that if I reach the said amount I will send it to my little bro in the Philippines. He is 12 years old, the youngest in the family and the only one who is still in school. I want to open a savings account for him. Since I am still single and no obligations or whatsoever, I want to save something for his future. My parents are both working but I vowed to myself that I will look after my lil bro. I would be feel at ease knowing that he has money that he could be use of until he will have a degree in college.

Good point my friend. It will be a good thing to do. Whatever amount you will earn here will mean a big thing in the Philippines. Thanks for the response.

In fact I haven't spent my earning from Mylot yet. Currently I don't have a specific thing to buy. And I will let the earning grow and one day it'll be a big amount. Then I shall think out a good way to use it:)

OF course, a bigger amount is better than the small payout. Saving it will be better for now until you come up with a good idea. Thanks.

I do a couple of things on the internet where I have small sums paid into my PayPal account. I just use it for all those little things that I buy via the net. eBay, Amazon, that sort of thing. There never seems to be enough to worry about saving it up for soemthing special!

I agree, I was paid only twice here and the highest I got was $19.97 it was my first payout. Today I only made $4.65. I won't qualify for this month's payout. With the price of things now, it's not enough.

But every little bit helps! If I add up all the little bits they equate to a few things I would not have had otherwise so I'm grateful for that.

I don't really know what I'm going to do with my myLot payout either. I don't think I'm going to spend it right away, I'm just going to save some more and then later I might do something with it. Thanks for creating this discussion, it has given me some ideas! :-)

You're welcome. Saving your payout is the best way to do besides, with the cost of things now, I don't think it's enough to buy what you really want. Save it and when it grows, then you can buy what you want.

I have only got $0.53 under mylot earnings but I am hoping to increase that to the minimal payout level, because hey now days with prices rising one everything for essentially no reason at all money is precious and needed. But I have no idea what I plan to use mine on, I will probably decided when I hit the payout point.

I have earned $0,09 sofar on mylot, so i have a long way to go before i reach payout. At the moment i don't know what i would do with my first payout. I depents on the amount i will get. What amount do you need in your account to get a payout?

I think you can qualify for a payout once you received a minimum of $10 but you will not receive it until the next month. So you will have enough time to think how to spend it. Thanks.

I have not received my first payout yet knowing that my earnings stil $0.12. Hehehe. I think it will take me like 3 more years. Kidding. Well, if I will get my first payout, I plan to keep it and make it bigger then invest it to some online business sites and make it grow..

It really depends...I think I'll accumulate my earning first so that I could buy expensive items in the future...Or I'll just accumulate it and encash it in the future in order to add in my savings.

Hello ruthinian :) I have not received my first payout yet. Hopefully soon :). My earnings here don't increase that fast because I post around 5 responses a day only. When I'm not very busy, I get to post at least 10. I wish I could post more, but there are other things I need to do :) Anyways. What I will do with my earnings here is to invest in stock market! wow! I hope I could earn here the minimum amount required to participate in the stock market :)

I have not received my first payout yet. But I am only 40 cents away. So at the end of this month I will be getting my first payment, yayyyyyyy. I haven't decided what I will do with the money yet. Am thinking about just letting it sit in my paypal account until I cash in on a few extra dollars.

My payout is going into a secret fund for me...for a rainy day. I may fly to Germany...or drive to New Mexico....or go to a RenFest....or fly to Alaska.... I don't know what my rainy day will be...but you can bet I'm going to have one, and when I do, I'll have the money to fund it. :-) Hmm, maybe my rainy day will be at the Boats in Shreveport. LOL
