I have been here at Mylot for quite a while now and have a lot of fun here sharing, reading and learning. It's great fun. I used the money I earn at Mylot to grow my blog network, which of course started with just one blog, which I earned the money to buy here. I also used the money I earned at Mylot to pay for an unlimited hosting account. Now I earn my living blogging about the things I love to talk about. What do you do with the money you earn here?

hi webmann, it is nice to know that you are doing well with your blogging business. i have tried and never had a chance to keep up with my marketing and postings because of my day job that sometimes eat up my evenings. well, i save my mylot earnings at paypal, park it there so i won't get to spend it in the real world. i might use it also to maintain a domain, like you do. so, can you gimme some tips on how to market a blog?

I haven't made any money on mylot yet really, but I do a lot of making money things online and so I typically take it and invest it in the stock market actually. I get about 50 dollars a month and wait a couple of months then transfer it to my checking then use my sharebuilder account to invest in different things. I have quite a big portfolio right now actually and it should be pretty nice for when I get out of school. Though if I take out more student loans I might just pay those off though if I'm lucky and continue to keep a few scholarships I can buy a car or something like that. I really like what you are doing though making a living with blogging and things like that I'm currently attempting to start up some blogs and maybe start making money off of that not necessarily make a living but a little bit of extra money to invest or supplement the cost of college. Good luck with everything though.

I transfer it into a business account to pay for my internet etc. I also used part of it to buy a book for my daughter in law who is going to college....I bought a used book on ebay and paid for it out of my paypal account.

Now that's a smart way to use money. I love eBay for buying things that would normally cost me twice as much or more to buy locally. Keep up the great use of your money.

As for me, I use my earnings here from MyLot to pay the bills like my internet connection and my computer, cause its a loan that I pay for monthly.

Oh!! you are using your money in a wise way. I really admire your idea to expand you earnings online using your mylot money. Me, I bought something to give to my nephews and nieces, things that they need in school. I am glad I was able to help with my little money. At least it was put to good use. But I like the way you use your earnings here in mylot. congrats!!! and you are earning through blogging? I just start my blog and I want to learn from your experience.

It's great to help others with your money. :) If I have learned anything from starting blogs I have learned that I make the most money sharing my experience in the hobbies that I spend the most money on. I have a make money online site but I find it very hard to earn much through that site, so much competition on make money online site, so I pretty much stick with my hobbies.

Well I usually just save all of them. This month I was running a little low and did not want to use any of my savings account so when I transferred the money I just left it to use in my checking account until I get paid.

I like keeping money I earn and receive through Paypal to pay my online bills so I don't have to dip into the credit card.

Well sometimes I save up the money to buy something that I have my eye on. Right now I can't say that I actually eyeing anything at this point. However, other times it's used to help pay for the essentials like gas, groceries and personal items. Sometimes I use it to buy gifts for the holidays and stuff. I use the earnings I get from here for a number of things. I just don't focus on one thing which I guess can be a good or bad thing, depending on how you look at it.

When I start to get some money.... I'm not that active yet. It will be to pay bills - since I don't have a job and probably will never get any.... I need to find other ways to earn me some money!

I have been collecting mine in my PayPal account, then all the money that's also from the other sites that pay me into my PayPal account goes into my savings account

I don't actually use it and I am planning to just keep it until it(hopefully) roll up into a big amount and then I'll use it in emergency times. I don't pay interne bills as I usually eat at a WIFI-enabled restaurant or coffee shop. It is just a bonus for having spent some fun time expressing ideas and exchanging views on mylot.com
