I'm here just for the money? Hmmm.... maybe, but remember.. I have to response 100 discussion a day to get only $1 (It will take my whole day). So.. if somebody being here just for the money... this is not a good place. This place are good for interact with others, to help them and get helped.

Hi xotri4th, Is that right i did not know that yes it is a great place to find stuff out as i found a lot allready.theres not that much time in the day to start 100 discussions i don,t think unless we don,t sleep. and when we get to the 100 i don,t think we would care about it. thanks for replying

I am here for both. I would love earning money, and at the same time, getting to meet new people and tending to know lots of information through discussions. Yes, i totally agree that the discussions here are mature, and I should say of good quality as to compare to other sites that just go for quantity and never for the quality. Cheers ~amaine~

Ofcourse not! I'm here for fun and simply to exercise my thoughts by answering discussions and giving comments. I never get payment anyway from this site even I reached up the minimum rate but still I'm enjoying.

i'm here for fun. i just joined a few days ago and I really think this is a mature audience. im used to facebook and myspace where only kids reside and i am so sick of that environment. these topics discussed here are actually interesting, they contain life situations which appeal to me greatly. i love reading everyone's opinion and responding with detail. it gives me something to do during the day and i feel as if i am learning more about the world.

Hi Fergus. I do not think most of us are here for the money, We are here for having fun and making a few good friends, the earnings are just a bonus. myLot is a great site, if you treat it right, it will be good to you. Great to meet another fellow Irish man on here, we are few and far between

Where did that money grabbing troll go to ?. Since he left the "Today's Top Discussion" makes less sense.

Initially when I signed up it was for the money. But now I enjoy the discussions and I love to respond to others especially those that are in need of advice. My lot is now like the family I never had and I make sure i'm here everyday as I love it and I love everyone who i interact with. So even if they stopped paying i would still be here because I have gotten so much more than just money. So keep it up my lotters!

I was planning to practice my English at the beginning. Now I like to discuss with people who have the same interests with money. Earning the money is bonus.

I would be hypocritical to say that I am here only to enjoy. Of course, one motivation is the earnings but also I enjoy as much as you can. They are both important factors why many people flock in this site. Their reliability in paying too is one factor. Never have I experience delay in paying me.

hope not really. since $10 is just a small amount if you earn it like even a month or 2. so i just love participating and not really thinking of what i earn. i enjoy the company and the replies of people around the globe. its like IYS (International Youth Service) over the internet. its an organization of people exchanging letters regarding their experiences. happy mylotting!

I am here not only for the money. As you know, the earning is very little in Mylot, even if you try to work hard here. I am here for some reasons. I want to have many posts here and hopefully one day I can be the rank 1:) I have some good friends here and I want to keep in touch with them. Here most people are friendly, I can have many nice feedbacks from them. I love China

I love to write and I learned a long time ago that money has nothing to do with following your passion although it is nice to be rewarded for your work. I would still come here if we weren't being paid just to see how my friends are doing and that is the best gift from MyLot the people; it's the people that make it a great site and the majority of them are interesting, polite and fun!

ACtually, that was my initial intention in joining here, but apparently, as I got involved into some topics. I realized that i am not enjoying in sharing my views in different issues, as well as counseling, if may say so, to others who seeks for a piece of advice. Honestly, whenever I log-in here, I right away for the hot topics and new disscussion that was started, and often times, i log-out without even making a peek on the earning, whether it increase or whatsoever.. I really enjoy this site. I was not only sharing but learning from others as well.

I really enjoy this site. I don't think people last if they don't enjoy it. You just can't make enough money here to be here JUST for the money. I love that I enjoy it and can earn money for what I do here, too. When I first joined Mylot, I wasn't sure of what to expect. I was initially here for the money, but then once I got to know "Mylot" and grew to love it and realized it wasn't going to earn me much money, it didn't matter. I enjoy posting and replying to discussions so much that I'd most likely continue to do it even if I weren't getting paid. The payment is a nice bonus though and definitely keeps me coming back!!

i am primarily here for the money, that is true that is the main reason why i even joined mylot. that is just the most honest answer to this question of yours. :) he he the rest is just a bonus me enjoying my time here anwering and sharing and then i will also earn.

I admit that the money just helps being here. But it is not everything. I like discussing things. yes I do feel better when I receive an email saying that my paypal account has been topped up. That is a big plus for staying here but it is not everything.
@Tko2020 (266)

What a question to ask,most people here would never truly admit that their prime reason for using Mylot is to make money, they would go around in circles before admitting, thats the real fact. I on the other hand dont give a stuff,i say it as it is, am here in the first instance to make some extra cash,because if you beleieve that Mylot made this site just for us, your dreaming,they did it firstly to make money.

I would have to agree with some other users that when I really didn't know much about the site, it was only to make money when I first signed up. But now, everyday that I log on and view the discussions, I get tied up more into the direction of discussions rather than how much I am making. I really enjoy the diversity of this site and the kindness of its users. I feel like this is is a honest site and a keeper.
