I just don't have enough time. 
If I had those extra 2 or 3 days, I might've managed it, but there's no way I'm going to make over a buck and a half in the 3 days left - well, maybe if I didn't do anything else. I haven't seen my update for today but its almost 2 bucks yesterday and since I'm not real good at looking for discussions or starting them, and my friends seem to be slow lately - I know, we all have real lives - I just haven't been putting enough work into it.
So, I don't make pay out 
oh well, pay out will be that much bigger come the end of March.
I love mylot, and its not so much the money, which is mostly spare change at best, but because I've made lovely friends here and had some very inciteful conversations!
So, are you here for the $$ or for the friends? I can safely say, the friends and conversation!

Hi ElicBxn. Same here my friend I have .70 cents to go and I think I will really not make it to payout this Month. But I hope I can post some today, so I will get a little earnings. It's okay If we wasn't able to reach the payout, our earnings will be accumulated the next month. No need to worry at least our payout for the next month is a bit higher than we expect and we have the chance to earn more. Just keep it cool and keep up the good work in posting. Have a nice day!

I am definitely here for the friends and the insightful conversations. I also enjoy the funny conversations, especially when I'm feeling down and need my spirits lifted. For sure the money doesn't do that much for my budget and so far I'm averaging making payout about every other month.

I'm here for the friends, but I do need the pocket change. Last year it helped me pay some smaller bills like that last few dollars for my phone bill. And around X-mas it helped me buy some presents for my family. I claimed Mylot on my income tax this year because I made $95.00 last year. That was pretty exciting, but I was on every day for most of the day because I really didn't have much work for quite a few months. This year, I'm back to making payout every other month like I did in years when I had a job. But the last few weeks have been slow. No work one week, 1/2 day the week before and 1/2 a day the week since. This week should be a week and a half if they don't cancel on me. So every little bit counts up. Not to mention the friends and the conversations! Take care

I know how you feel. I don't think that I'm going to make payout this month either. I'd definitely need more time to be able to reach it. I was certainly hoping that I'd be able to reach, but now I know that I'm not going to make it.

You are not the only one who cannot make payout this month. I also have a dollar and a half left but have yet to see my earnings for yesterday. I do not if I earned a lot but I did start a few interesting and attracting discussions. I did not earn much from referrals, which is not saying much because I don't earn significantly from them but its only 6 cents in a whole month.
That is always a popular question. I'll be honest. I came for the money but stayed because of the conversations and all the great qualities of this site. I will also say that I try harder near the end of the month so I can reach payout every month. Its kind of like me procrastinating, enjoying mylot until the last few days of the month. 
Happy mylotting and good luck! Hope we can both make payout!

I've just started this mylot thing and I see you definitely don't get much money out of it. I suppose the $ part might pick up a little since I just started, but I don't really care. I do have a day job! And I've been happily surprised that most people are really quite friendly and some insightful.

I am not going to make it either. I will just have to work on next month. I may not make it then either, as my son is having a big surgery in the middle of next month.

Thanks to all of you. He is having rods put in his back. It will be an 8 hour surgery. It is very risky. All prayers will be appreciated.

I hope your son's surgery goes well. Please let him know I will keep him in my prayers. I pray he will get well soon and have a short recovery time from the surgery.

I'm not really here to make lots of money - I'm here to chat with friends, the money is more a gage on how much I do here than to make it rich - tho I took a payout from paypal last Oct and paid a few of Taj's medical treatments before his surgery

I'm in the same boat as you, very unlikely to make payout in time. In fact, I can't actually remember when I last did LoL I've been faffing around with no internet access and just keeping my internet activities ticking over when I can for so long that I'm beginning to forget what it feels like to get one of those emails that says I've been paid!
So, as you've probably figured, I'm not in myLot for the money. It's a nice bonus and I get a kick out of receiving it, but I enjoy writing down my thoughts and keeping in touch with friends I've made here more.

It is possible to do in a couple of days, but you have to post a lot, and start several dicussions, and it doesn't hurt to post photos. But it does take a lot of effor, and if you don't have the time it is too hard. I am here for both the money and the friends, I love getting answers to my discussions. I also love answering other people's discussions, I especially love it if I am able to help someone.

I'm not going to be making payout this month either, i have time to make a few posts but not enough time to make enough posts for payout...i a little far off! only a few dollars LOL
But like you, it's gonna be a bigger payout at the end of March! 
to answer you're question, i started here for the money but i ended up meeting some great people and having good conversations that i started to really enjoy mylot for the discussions! making money is pretty much just a bonus now

I don't earn enough to make it worth my while being here, but I have so many lovely friends and conversations that its more than worth it. All I want to do when I get up or home for the day is to get on the Lot and start looking for discussions!

I too am most probably not going to make it to the required amount by the end of this month. Even an extra day would have helped me. I am at $8.99 and there are just 2 days left and i have a busy day ahead tomorrow, so, i am very doubtful about being able to reach payout this month.So close yet
I am however sure of a payout for next month..

The friends, the conversation, the inspiration. The money is just icing. Not enough to keep me coming back. It's the people who make this place so addictive.

I will not be making payout either. I'm just so busy anymore and I don't always feel like coming here to make a few posts. However, like you said, I'm not too worried about not getting paid for this month. I'll have a better payout next month and sometimes I think seeing that nice higher amount in our bank accounts is better than just $10.

I am not going to make it either. My goal was to make it this month but unexpected things came up and I did not have the time to devote to posting on myLot. I am pretty sure I can make it by end of March and that will be okay. I believe I will have more time next month and it is also a longer month too. Best of luck to you, I hope you make payout soon.

If I did not have earnings left from last month, since I did not make payout for Janurary, I probably wouldn't make payout for February either. I have not been very active as of late. It is hard to find interesting discussions to respond to, therefore, I am not doing much responding.
I will try harder next month, but this months earnings are very small.

Hey there! Me too. I won't be reaching the payout this month. But, come end of march maybe I'll earn more than $20. It's my goal for now. I wanna reach that. I was so busy the past couple of months that it was only the other that I was able to do mylotting. I miss it a lot. I use to spend hours here in mylot. I find a lot of good discussions here and also starting my own discussion. I get to be informed by others of certain things I wanna know. Well, for me it's the friends, conversation, and earnings that keeps me here. I like making friends along the doing mylotting and having a fruitful conversation with others. I get excited every time I see that my earnings have updated and when I earn something like $1 in a day, I happy with it. Cheers!!
