I have just recently signed up to this site after hearing so many good things about it. Engage in discussions on a variety of subjects, meet new people and make friends, have fun ,and make some money for doing it. That sounded great to me as I am no doubt sure it sounded just as appealing to you. Now that we are all here and enjoying ourselves I have no doubt most people stay more for the fun of it all than the money. Presently I am pretty close to my first payout and I've been here and on less than 2 weeks. I think that is pretty decent for a newbie .. don't you? I expected it to be much slower than it has been so far and have to admit I am pleasantly surprised. But I am curious ... How long did it take you to reach payout? or if you haven't yet reached a payout how long do you think it will take for you to reach your first payout?

I agree I joined for the same reasons, but I think I would stay now regardless tho I don't think it's a bad perk to be paid for it. Thanks for the response.

Been here 4 mos. now just got to 100 posts I don't worry about the money anymore because that slow in coming.yes some people can make cashout in a matter of a few weeks that because they can stay on the site 24/7 or have enough active referrals.

That's a good point and view, I'm sure as long as you are having fun and meeting new people, this site is worth the time as little or as much as one has. It will pay off in the end, thank you for responding and I hope you get some more free time to have fun.

I don't remember, actually. I was shooting for 100.00 payout when I joined up, it seemed like it took forever. The I got mad because they deleted one of my posts. I took out my money, I had about 75.00 at the time and I didn't go back until this February and I have been making more than the 10 payout every month. You are doing fantastically. I don't know if I did that good when I first started.

Yeah you are doing great and thank you for saying that I am doing fantastically. I'm sure you would have gotten that 100$ payout pretty quick, I hope they don't delete any more of your posts it sucks to have stuff we took our time to write disappear.

Thank you for welcoming me, sorry to hear you don't have a lot of time for mylot. I think a payout every other month is decent .. I didn't even expect that much to be honest.

Hello there bro, congratulations on getting close to your first payout. As for me, I've yet to reach it, but I'm guessing the next payout, I will be able to reach my minimum payment. I am a new user like you as well, and I have come to love mylot very much. I think the friends here are truly awesome and they are always willing to give good advices and opinions. Hope to see more of your discussions. Take care and have a nice day there.

You have done well to get close to payout within two weeks. It takes everyone a different amount of time. I did it in one month but for some people it could take one year.
Having been paid for the first time last week, for my earnings up to the end of March, I am almost at minimum payout again. I know I will get paid every month if I continue to be an active member of myLot.
You seem to be enjoying the experience, which means you will do well at myLot.

I wouldn't normally consider someone who has posted more than 400 posts as new on myLot. But then, I was curious and went to your profile to take a look, and sure enough, you are pretty new here having joined only 3 weeks ago. It's quite an achievement for you to posts so much in three weeks. Congratulations! You must be spending quite a bit of time here on myLot. I have been here about a year, and have only posted nearly 4 times what you have achieved. I had two payouts previously. The first one took me 5 months, while the second took me 4 months. I'm improving, and I should be getting a third payout after this month-end, because my earnings now is over $10 already. If I can continue to get a payout every two months, I will consider that an achievement already, because I spend up to 2 hours a days here only.

I've been here officially 2 weeks and one day today, two days I did nothing at all so 12 days. Thank you none the less :P I haven't really spent all that much time on here as I am doing other things at the same time. I agree with you that 2 hours a day but getting payout would be an achievement. Thanks for your comment and I hope you get more time to have some fun here. ^^

It took me 2 months to reach my first payout and I'm sure it will take me another 2 weeks. I haven't got the time I used to have nowadays. We are currently searching and filling out paperwork on houses. We think we may have found one so with moving I will have even less time this month to try. I expect when we get moved and get everything set up that I will once again have time and will TRY to reach it every month.

Haha, I'm here I think slightly more than 2 weeks & I'm 2 times slower than you comparing posts. Payout? I'm only at $2.95 now. Haha. When reaching payout? Well, never really pushed myself that hard as I knw they'll pay coz my friend has received payout a few times already. Perhaps I'm a bit too relaxed already & need to buck up, haha!~!

There is nothing wrong with taking your time and enjoying what you are doing at your leisure. If you worked a little more you would reach payout faster but I don't think you are doing badly at all ... keep it up and thanks for the response.

this is one of the few sites that i can come to and feel like i'm making a difference.
i don't have a lot of time - but i do come every day - sometimes in the morning AND evening.
i'm averaging about 5 cents per day - so it will take me about 200 days - i'm moving right now, though, so i figure i will have a lot more time to put into it in a couple of weeks.
i like that i can make a decent amount on my own - and not have to worry that my "referral line" is not so active.

I'm glad you asked this question. I'm a newbie too and have not begun to get very active yet. It's interesting to see the various answers.

It used to not take me very long to reach the monthyl payout amount at Mylot. It used to tkae me just a few days. Now it takes me many hours and days of typing to reach a little above the payout amount. Their pay scale has dropped quite a bit.

For my first payout it took me about 3 or 4 months to reach it, if I remember right. The next payout I reached a bit sooner, I think it was 2 months, as I was trying a little harder to see if I could reach this goal that I had set for myself. I can't seem to do any better than that and I know that I can't reach payout every month like some mylotters can on here, but that's okay as I'm happy just getting what money I can when I can, even if it takes me months to get it.

That's a good way to look at it, I hope you get more time to mylot and earn a little more, but it is just a bonus so it really does not matter either way. thank you for sharing your view.

I am so jealous of you!!! It took me nine months to get to payout the first time. But then again I didn't see the value of the site until much later. You are lucky because you got to see the value of the site first hand, from your mom (What is her screen name btw?) I have been doing much better as of late, I reached payout this month in ten days. It just takes seeing the real value of the site besides the payout, and the earnings will come.

Thank you .. no need to be jealous like you said I came a little more prepared than most already knowing a little about this site from my mother. I am glad to hear you have been doing better lately. I definitely agree seeing the value is most important rather than people that just want to make the money and make alot of one liners or don't participate much. Thank you for responding.
