In my case, it was the chance to get some feedback on my ponderings and opinions. What was your reason? I have found it to be addictive. In order to stay in touch I will have to limit my daily time here, or end up- as I have recently- staying away altogether for months (unintentionally) on end. Are you able to touch base and then go on about your day- or do you find hours slipping by while you interact with fascinating people?

I joined MyLot to interact with people in an un-threatening envrionment and to learn about those people in the process. I have also found it addictive - I spend hours on here every day. It's like you can be a part of hundreds of conversations every day and never have to leave the house! :) I find it relaxing and stimpulating.

My daughter found this site then she sent me a link to join under her. I did but did not become active for a few weeks after signing up. Now I've been here over a year and love this site and am on a lot all day long. I am my fathers caregiver so I am home all day long, what better things to do then write and earn as I sit at the desk. I love doing myLot as I've made a lot of friends and this is my job basically as I am home all the time. I do not get out a lot due to dads health etc.
HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

of the friends I have met here and may try to
arrange it soon as well.

hi arcadian,
I will admit honestly that right in the beginning my attraction towards mylot was only earning money, I was an active member of yahoo answers and then one day someone sent me a message that if I will write things that I wrote on yahoo answers in mylot I will be paid. So I joined mylot.
But today things are different. I don't care what I earn or what I don't earn here because today I have more precious things than money and that is good friends and their sincere friendship which I enjoy a lot and which has made me addicted to this site. I really like this site.
Thanks and have a nice day.

I heard it was a lot like yahoo answers. I love to post funny stuff and help other if I can as well as ask for advise from others.
Some people I find are VERY rude and self-centered and that's a shame but the good and honest out weight them.
I'm glad I was told about myLot. I'm on it everyday.

At first, I joined because I heard somewhere that I can get paid just by posting my opinions and blogs..But after a day or so, I got hooked in responding that I didn't notice my earnings and that I have referrals already.. I enjoy doing this..I need to practice my typing skills and my English..I haven't gone to a real work since 2000, so, I need to somehow check if Im still good at it..Well, just a little more polishing...

I'm back after about 6 or 7 months absence, and I stumbled over discussions about the stars- I don't get it, one way or the other. But it seems a little like someone flipping you off in traffic- no harm really but annoying- when your number falls, I think- just ignore it. you know this has to be the bbest of its kind- look at the size of it!!

I joined Mylot because I really like posting on message boards, and the money aspect of it really was the icing on the cake. Now I can get paid for spending time online. What's better than that?

That's good for you. I actually joined because i needed a temporary source of income. However, I haven't been earning a lot lately I think I should just go out and get a job. The good side is that I've learned about some interesting things through some posts. Since school's out and I'm not employed, I check in everyday which is great. Nevertheless, I'm looking into avenues for earning money because myLot doesn't pay that well.

Actually I was just blog Hopping, because that is my hobby until i see someones blog having an entry regarding MyLot. I enter the site and i found out that this is compose of a big community and i think i could get a lot of reactions from the member and i could respond to their discussions. I just love reading ideas and perspective of different people all over the world.
Aside from that Im earning as well. Hitting two birds at a single shot.
