I am a stay at home mother. I do not work outside of the home but I might seek work in the future. For now I like to come to this site to make friends and earn a little extra income. Therefore I do spend quite a bit of time here. I kind of consider it a work from home job being that there is a pay out and all. Does anybody here consider this to be something of a part-time job or side gig?

It looks like you are doing well so far. It will take a little time on here to earn a little extra cash but you can make some friends here in the mean while. And not a lot of people who responded to my question consider this really a part time job. Good luck to you and hope you do well here.

I do agree with the fact that you are keeping your earnings in your paypal for a while. I think that is probably a good idea. I will be getting paid here soon and I plan on keeping my earnings in paypal for a little while.
It is good if you do find this site helpful and fun. Good luck to you insulin.

I want to take Mylot seriously but I'm alway busy at work that I have no time more time in Mylot. When I'm bored and tired with my tasks, I go Mylot's site and join discussions to relax a little bit. I also spend time in Mylot if I have spare time after my lunch break. You are right! You will be able to save your money as long as it is in Paypal.

I have not made enough money here to consider it a job at all. It is a hobby/ place to chill out for me. I enjoy coming here and reading new things and adding my opinion here and there. Sometimes a question I have will cross my fingertips as well.
Cheers!

Thanks shell for the response. Some people like yourself do not consider that this site is paying enough for it to be a part time job. It can be a nice gig on the side or hobby and something for in your spare time. Have fun logging on and I look forward to hearing from you in future posts.

hi bamakelly I consider mylot as my way to have good friends and share and care with them, and also make some exta grocery money
'which is sort of frosting on my cake. I love mylot and love'
mylotting as it fills a huge void in my day and gives me company and sometimes hope too. I am in a bad sticky situation and my being on here helps me to keep from going bananas for sure.Also makes me feel there may be hope for me after all.

I do agree with you as to making good friends here. I do get some good and helpful responses here. People do seem to be caring in their replies and I appreciate it a lot. It is good that it can fill a void in a person's day.
I also agree that it could do something for your piece of mind if you say that it can keep you from going bananas! Good luck Hatley.

What I also love in Mylot is meeting new friends and sharing them my opinions toward situations. I haven't paid here because I'm just new here but I'm hoping to earn more soon by being active if I have my free time. Every morning, aside from my YahooMail, Mylot is one of the websites that I visit.

I understand what you are saying. You are just beginning but you will earn a little extra cash here. I do thank you for your opinion. I wish you a lot of luck here and hope you make new friends.

If you are that eager in earning money in here and be active in answering in the discussions, somehow it can be some kind of part-time job that will earn you money although it may take you that long.

Hi bamakellly, I don’t think the time and effort posting here could bring as much money as I can get from my part time job in real life. Anyway I always consider mylot is the best site for me to spend my leisure time here. I like to make friends with people from different places of the world, sharing views and opinions, and acquire new information and knowledge at the mean time. Besides I am happy with the little amount of pocket money made here. It is the great impetus to move me move further
Of course, for those stay at home moms, it is really a great site for them to make some side earning during their spare time at home. Besides they could have fun chatting with friends on certain interesting topics so as they still could have amusement after the tedious household chores
posting and take care.

Thank you for your reply and a message well said. There are some who just look at myLot as a place to earn a little money on the side and too make friends. Not a really big part time enterprise or anything.
It does serve as some good pocket money and it is a nice site for women like me, a stay at home mother. I appreciate the comment you made about tedious household chores. It makes my work at home feel more credible because you can understand the hardships of a mother.

Thank you subha for your response. There seems to be quite a few members here that have a full time job and do this site for a part time gig. Nothing wrong with that. I am at home with my son during the day and also a little puppy. I come on here when I get some free time and correspond with other members as well.

For me, yes mylot for me consider to be my part time job. As far as you concern i did received twice green from this site. I was so glad that mylot is real and really giving money to all members who are active and the more you participate the more money you will earn... Just like doing job...

Thanks for your reply. You did receive pay from myLot and that is proof that it is a legitimate site. It is true that the more you participate here the more money you can earn. I wish you luck and once again, thank you.

For those who have a free time at home and do not have any work to earn can take it as a part time job at my lot making good discussions and responses. I think if not more by putting around 6 to 8 hours at my lot one can atl east earn a 50$ a month as pocket money or for utility bills. How you see it and comment.
@bamakelly (5191)

You are right. It is something that can be done with some free time like I get now and then what with being a wife and mother. It can depend if it is considered part time by how much dedication you have to it. If you can pull in about fifty dollars a month in pocket money that would be great. Don't think I have quite hit that mark yet but I am doing okay for myself. Thanks for responding. Have a great day!

If this was a part-time job I would be staving by now. It doesnt pay enough to even log in everyday. But that pay is not the incentive. Its the topics and the people I have met that make me keep coming back. Now I have to go to my real job. Ciao!
@bamakelly (5191)

I see what you mean. There are some who view this as a sort of part time job and those who just do it as a side gig to working another job. I agree that the incentive is the topics and the people.
Yes, you can make lots of friends here by corresponding regularly and it can be fun also. Thanks for your response.

Yes, I can say that it is a part time job. I know that during you free time at home, you really enjoy spending those hours in Mylot. You maybe staying at home but through Mylot, you get spend your time usefully and earning money as well.

Thank you for your response. There are some people who perceive this as part time and some do not. You are right though. I might be staying at home but I get to spend time usefully.
It doesn't hurt to make a little extra cash either!

I consider as much time I spend on the computer and an extra income earning opportunity. I enjoy getting paid for doing something I truly love, especially mylot. My sponsor who introduced me to mylot through a GPT site we were both apart of has been a great support as well.
My sponsor even warned me that mylot was addictive, boy was she right. But I absolutely love sharing with other people. One thing we all have in common, is our success or failures can help all of the newbies out there that are just experiencing life for the first time.
Whatever you do I believe you should do it wholeheartedly. I'm planning on being a mylotter for life.

Thanks for your reply. You sound like a real die hard myLot fan! Yes, it can become very addictive. I have been back to this site for almost four months now. It is nice to make a little extra money and also correspond with a lot of members.
It can be considered an extra income opportunity or it can be left to individual interpretation as to whether it is a part time job or just a hobby. Take care.

Okay here's my thought...part time jobs are defined as working a limited amount of hours in a month or week and get remunerated for it. how about this being an entrepreneurial venture and employing oneself instead of seeing it as a part-time job?
@bamakelly (5191)

I think that you have a good idea here. I never looked at it that way. I am kind of employing myself here and being my own boss. How about you call me an independent contractor?

Well in my case I barely could say that this is some kind of part time job at all. since my earnings in here could not really hit the amount I wanted to earn in a month. It takes me a couple of months to say withdraw the amount I wanted. So I think this is what I call a hobby. i could not say it a job since it doesn;t make that much to make a living out of this.

Yes it could be construed as a hobby of a kind. It might not meet the full potential of a part time job to some myLot members. It might depend on an individual's needs.
I find it to be something of pocket money and I like to let it add up and one day maybe get myself or family something nice. Good luck here on myLot and have great day!

I kind of consider Mylot an on the side gig. Something that I come to when I really need some extra cash. I really don't spend very many hours here to really consider it a part time job, but I do spend quite a bit of time here, especially when I anticipate that money will be tight.
I think a lot of people do consider it a part time job though. Many spend many hours a week here and because they're so good at writing their posts here at Mylot can do quite well. Some just never figure out how to really make this place count though so it never really works out for them.

I really like your response. I do think that myLot could be considered something of a side gig. Some people have a job already that they go out of the house to and then come home to sit on myLot for some extra money and to make friends. I am a stay at home mother so I enjoy coming here to correspond and of course make a little extra money myself.
You are right. Some just don't really know how to make this place count and it might not work out for them as good as it could. Thank you for the reply.

For me, myLot is not really a part time job. I do like the few extra dollars that I make while making responses here. I believe I'm going to earn an average of 10 to 12 dollars every 3 months. That's ok with me. It will give me that much to get some gas for the car with or a few groceries if I'm running short just before payday at my regular job.

I understand that some don't view this as a part time job. It does sound like a good thing to have a little something from here to help you get gas or a few groceries. It is a nice way to make friends also. Thank you for your response.

I'm a stay at home dad but I wouldn't consider this a part time job. Its more of a part time friendship social forum to learn about other things. You should write for a site or do some surveys to make a little extra money, that would be considered a part time job. If you love something and don't care if you get paid for it then that's not a job, thats a dream.

Yes, it does seem that there are other members that consider this a part time job and some really don't. I think it might depend on what works best for some people. It can be a side gig for some and others designate more time toward it and seriously want to try and make some money.
A lot of people responded that they come to this site after work. A lot of people just enjoy corresponding here with others along with the prospect of making extra money. Thank you

Yes it does seem that some people who have replied to my question do find this site to be somewhat of a part time job. You are making some money here right? Well then it can possible be looked at as a job on the side especially if you are working at the office and come home to hop onto this site. Thanks for responding.
