Recently, i signed in here in mylot because i'm curios about how much money I will earn. But as time goes by, I realize that aside from the money that you are going to earn, you can also find good people from all over the world. There are sites that people doesn't care for each other. But here in mylot, everybody is helping. So right now mylot is my number 1 site. How about you?what's you're purpose here? how do you find it here?

When I signed up for mylot I thought I was gonna make real money. So I posted and posted and eventually I realized, I have made lots of friends. The little amount of money you get from posting is not that much really. But the experience here and all the new things you learn from reading and discussing is one thing you cannot seem to find in other sites. So, this site is on the top for me.

Yes, you're right. I am only staying here at home and instead of chatting in the chat room, why not chat here, right? So don't just think of the money you will earn, just keep on posting, and eventually you will reach the minimum payout.

I feel the same way. I thought that it would be easy money. I didn't know any of the rules about quality posting yet. But, now, I prefer to make quality posts because it is the right thing to do, as well as for the earnings increase. :) It might be a little bit of money, but it is still helpful to me. :) But, this site is about SO much more than that. :)

well, I come here in mylot for both. I found mylot in one of the writing websites I am engaged in. And when I started to be here, I enjoyed with the discussions and it boost my earnings. All of us knew that we are not getting richer here but, I learn lots of things here and gain lots of friends too. That is the reason why many people keep on coming back here even if they are not earning much but it is fun!!.. think about it!!! who will pay you for making fun like this? posting and discussing? hahaha I think there are still other sites that do this but mylot is more stable than the others.

I am here for both as well. :) I think that all of us are. :) Maybe we are not getting richer, but still, extra spending money is extra spending money. :) It is also good to have fun and make friends! :) There is definitely nobody else who will pay you to do this! :)

It is said that - 'anything without purpose is useless exercise'. When I joined here, my purpose here was to interact with members from different countries and cultures, so that I could share my views with them and could learn from their views. Since the time I joined, I added many friends here, who taught me how to write a quality response and what to write and what not to write. There are some very learned and experienced members who not only support you but guide you, as well. I am still learning and keep adding in my list those members, whom I find are like me and who are dedicated to this site.
Good Post!

Hi, aisaellis.. ^^v
I've read about myLot from another forum way back 2007. At first I have no idea that you can actually earn some money here in myLot. All I knew was that it's a good place to talk about anything. I used to chat on mIRC (are you familiar with that) and read on forums. I don't remember where exactly I saw myLot.. Anyway, that person said that she had posted the same discussion in myLot. She's happy hanging around myLot, and all that beautiful words she'd said. In short, I bought her sales talk. haha!
then I saw a post from friendster: do you want to earn money by writing your opinion.. something like that. That was timely, I thought since I really need to earn some money. I was shocked to find out that it's myLot...
My story is getting long, don't you think, aisa? So there, in conclusion, I've joined because of the 'incentive' of getting some amount here. But the thing that actually keeps me coming back are the good people with interesting topics. I also come here to share my own experiences, ask for advice (especially being a mom), or sell something. haha!
Earning is just an incentive, a bonus.. Will I spend most of time here if I'm only after the money? There are many other sites that can pay more. There's something here in myLot... and that's because of people like you. ^^v

No problem, Aisa.. You can always give me a second BR(best response).. I've read about your topic about it too. I'll be posting later on. Anyway, I don't mind having the BR right now. I want to share my opinion and "purpose" for being here, and nothing else.

What a sweet thoughts babyfuzz. I wish you could have replied earlier so I could give you my Best Response. Honestly, you really deserves it. Anyway, I agree with you. I also joined here through referral and my first intention here is to earn. I can't believe that I will love it here. I love my experiences and the members are really nice.

I have only been on myLot for maybe about 3 months now. I wonder how much money I would have earned by now if I had discovered it as early as you did! ;) Anyway. Yes, myLot is absolutely a fantastic way to talk about almost anything that you want to. Yes, I started with the money incentive, but come back here for the lively discussions with very interesting people. I would still post here if I did not make any money from it anymore. However, the money is very nice, especially when you learn how to make quality posts. :)

Hello again Aisaellis,
As for me, I join mylot for one reason, that is to earn money. After some time of activity i get addicted to it. That is because there are lots of interesting people who post interesting topics you can respond to. Aside from that, most mylot members are very kind and friendly. They make you feel good inside by helping you with your problems, giving immediate response.Moreover, it helps you learn something from time to time just by reading and interacting.. And more thing, it helps me speed up my typing skills and enhance my English speaking.
Happy mylotting.

Hello woxiduckduck! Most of the chinese that I met here, their initial purpose of joining here is to learn english. I will tell you, you are in the right place. I don't really think that your english is bad because you're really good. I really hope that you would stay long here and that you would like it here.
Well, I would say that welcome here in mylot and keep on posting.

Earning extra money is still my main reason for being here. But, now it is not the ONLY reason. I am almost addicted to these Discussions that I have every day. :) It is fun for me, as well as very educational. I could not live without coming to myLot every day! :)

You are right there you will meet lots of people who will later be your friends. I signed here in MyLot months ago but I didn't even bother posting. I didn't even update my profile. A friend of mine whom I know through a Social Networking site encouraged me to join. So I tried it and I find it fun and at the same time a good way to earn money.

I wonder how do you feel about it now, after another 5 months since you started this discussion. I have been a member since may 2008, and i agree, after my first payment, i got discouraged with mylot, as i also was away a lot from it because of different situations and so my second payment came quite late but i soon realized that apart from the money, i am here for a few friends i made as well.

Well, since you asked me elitess, I would say that I love it even more here. The earning is reasonable. I mean it's not big but it's better for me especially I am just at home and just waiting for my visa. I love it because I learn a lot. I can even say that my english is quiet good than the first time I joined here.
I even found out that my title here is wrong grammar..hehehe..It should be "What are your PURPOSES here in mylot" not PURPOSE.

The reason I'm here is because of my friend. He told me that this site was like Facebook but with money. So, I tried it out and found later that money isn't really the important thing about the site - its the people and the site itself. Well, I still have the little thoughts of money but myLot satisfy overall. Happy mylotting :)

That was definitely the first thing in MY mind as well! I mean, who DOESN'T want to earn some extra money? I also enjoy my stay here more every day. I keep on making new friends, and who knows? We may also meet in "real life", even though I am a bit anti-social! *LOL* I also learn something new every day. Happy myLotting to you, as well! :)

Hi aisaellis,
I too joined mylot for money. Initially there was much problem to understand the same and have no idea to post new etc. Then I went for hibernation for sometime. In between I am getting Mylot digest regularly in my inbox and it gives the inspirations to join back. The second time I am lucky and got many friends (yes they are good) and got payment too. Now I am not bothered about the money and mylot is a part of my daily life. I really enjoying mylot and learned much from here.
How are you dear? Have a nice day.

You never know what you might end up talking about on any given day. There are so many different categories to choose from. Each day is different.
