Is it important to have mylot friends?

Having a friend list is great as this will definitely force you to become more participative in this community. When I started I really did not have many but now for each day when I can spend sometime here, I get new friends. It is a wonderful pleasure to have new friends, learning more about them, responding to their questions/ views and make some extra cash! Keep on going.

I haven't been on mylot very long, but I'm not all that interested in making new friends. I just want to participate in discussions,learn more about things (like money makign opportunities on the web) share knowledge and make a little extra change. I mean, I wouldn't mind picking up a friend or to, but that's not really what I'm here for- if I'm going to make friends online, I am more likely to do it in a yahoo group where I have something specific in common with the people out there.

I don't find this helpful

Yes important, Dont expect anything in friends and accept for what they are.
