How earnings compare to other things.

I found a dime in the parking lot of a supermarket today. Which means by bending over and picking it up, I earned more in those few seconds than in all but a very few exceptional days here on Mylot. Would that also hold true for you?

That seems especially true and kind of ironic, isn't it.. I get what you mean there, and it's kind of a tongue-in-cheek situation, really. I feel like that too, at times but I just can't stop participating in mylot and I don't really care so much, ha... But that's a good thought there. Keeps me wondering too, LOL..

Yea, most days my earnings are 10 cents or less, but that is because my time on myLot has been limited. A funny thing about finding change on the ground.... my youngest son started picking up money on the ground when he was 3. He started finding it in a parking lot at our complex when we walked his older brother to the school bus each morning. He's 6 now and we just cashed in his change bank for the 2nd time since he started picking up change. The first time it had a little over $50 and this time he had $84 in his change bank (we bought him a larger bank 2 years ago) Not bad, he's personally saved over $130 in his savings account from money people dropped and left on the ground and it only took him a little over 3 years (that's more money than I've earned on myLot)

HaHaHa.....I never thought about it but it's actually funny. You're very right but I usually make more than that if I have the time. Maybe we should all be out checking the parking lots more for change, lol! Naw, I have so many friends here, it's really worth the time and effort and I'm not concerned about the money. This isn't the place to come and make big bucks, it's more for the fun of it.

I walk everyday as well, hut I have never found anything more than a penny on the ground . As far as my earnings are concerned, they vary from day to day, as I don't always do the same amount, as the day before, and there are some days I can't even be in here, so I try to make up for the time I miss in here by doing more the next day. I am not bored with mylot, nor would I ever think about leaving it. I am having so much fun, and I have learned so much since I have been here. I wouldn't want to be ahywere else that is for sure. well, good luck to you and happy mylotting.

Interesting comparison. I usually earn between 30 and 60 cents a day, but I like the discussions, so I'm not too worried. I think to really earn money on here, you need to recruit referrals and do tasks. When I have more time to spare, I'm goint to try some of the tasks, but at the moment, I have a lot of other things going on.

17 cents is the best I have done on any given day this year. I have only ever had one active referral and they haven't done anything in months. I just don't have the time to do a lot here, so I mainly come for the interaction and not money.

I walk every day so I always look where I am walking...I found 65 cents not too long ago. I was happy to earn that much money in 5 minutes lol...I do not feel guilty because if I happen to find money I consider it a blessing in this day and age where everyone is unemployed...
