MyLot is Buying Me A Motorcycle

I've come up with what I think is a fantastic idea to motivate myself. My offline jobs pay all my bills, so anything I make online is extra. I have several online programs that I participate in, and they are all set to deposit into my Paypal account. MyLot's payouts are going into my account as well, and I will have enough for the motorcycle I want in 9 months! What does everybody else do with the payouts? Save it? Spend it?

My motivation to do all this online stuff is my Vacation in November. We already have plane tickets, but I still don't have enough money to spend.. I still have 4 months to go, so I plan to really be active on my online stuff to be able to save enough for our vacation. My day job, also only pays the bills and that's about it, I really don't have extra money to save, unless it's a bonus or something. LOL. I'm just hoping I save enough so that I can have the best vacation ever. =)

Where are you going in November? I think it's an excellent idea for earning spending money. It's very satisfying when you make your purchases and you know that it is extra (fun) money!

I'm going to Ilocos Province here in the Philippines, it's an old province, wherein old houses still stands and a lot of old churches. =)

Wow in 9 months you are going to have enough for a motorcycle that is really amazing. If you don't mind me asking how mutch are you getting a month? and How mutch is the motorcycle? So far I have not got a single payment from any of the sites that I'm a member of but when I do get some money I would either save it up to be able to help out with some bills or anything that we might need at the moment. Or if the amount might help to make a payment for a bill well I'm interested in finding a way to work online to help out.

i generally save the money to use for christmas gifts. i dont buy much online, but what i do, i use with my paypal account and buy it that way. last year, i bought a few things for my daughters and this year so far, i have bought a charm for a friend of my daughters.

It is definitely a great way to save for gifts! I like having it where I can't easily touch it, unless making purchases online! That way I don't spend it on non-fun stuff!

I choose to save it. Working Online is unexpected and can't predicted. Living in the world also can not be presumed. This growing money later to cover the unexpected expenses. I really like the target that you created. Let move on ...

I always used a simple calculation by half. Every time I get money that I always save half. If the remaining half is not enough to buy something then I keep all. I will just wait until money is collected. Sometimes the wait is only 2 or 3 month even more. Of course price is cheaper at that time. If price is not go down then I have to wait more longer or just buy on second hand.

Too many people do not have emergency funds in place! I like to be prepared for the worst, but my online earnings are just extra. I refuse to use my offline earnings for pleasure items. Do you save all your money?

it depends. now i'm planning to buy another new digital camera.maybe when i buy it,there's only little from this site, so i'll use my salary. but god knows,maybe i'll use money earned from here to buy sth others. to save it,it's also possible.

There's no doubt about it. It takes awhile for the earnings to amount to a whole lot, but it's possible. What kind of digital camera are you looking to buy?

I'm sure it will. Where do you like to shop online the most?

I got involved in online money making in October last year and since then I have transfered money from my paypal to my bank account a couple of times. The first time that I received my online earnings I spent it on a dinner at a nice restaurant. My husband and I had a great evening, we can't afford to eat out that often so we really enjoyed it. I was planning on spending the next money on a similar thing, but I ended up spending it on groceries and bills instead. I hope to save up some money though, so that I can buy soemthing nice maybe a trip to another country

Vacations are awesome! What country would you go to if you had the choice? I'm planning a dinner out this weekend, but hoping not to spend any of my papypal money!

Wow, you already planned about buying something within 9 months time. Well good luck with that. I will still be planning mine since I haven't made up my mind what to do with my earnings although some of it I already have given to missionary purpose and I am still going to do it. I will still need more and save more. I need more sites to give me extra amount of money. And then I will also post here what did I do with my saving in Mylot and post a picture too.

I figured I better plan 9 months out...it will take that long to accumulate!

My hubby and I are still saving all our online earnings and we plan to buy something from it. A car is on the top of our list. At least a second hand will do. If it will push through it will be our very first car as a couple. You are right when you said that it helps to be motivated by having a fantastic idea.

It must be fun to do it along with your husband! Do you guys ever compete to see who can earn more than the other?

Just like most responses here, I also have enough income for a living. What I earn here, goes to what I love most... makeup. However, in the months I have been actib=ve here, I still haven't reached my payout yet (I'm almost there ). I can't help myself browsing the websites where I love to shop already, lol!

The great thing about online earnings is that it normally is extra for most people. The ones that are struggling to make money online in order to pay bills seem to not enjoy the actual activity. I would do MyLot even if it didn't pay anything! What about you?

That's not a bad idea at all. After all, most people when they graduate start looking towards buying a house, and you'll have a head start! Are you in college now? Where do you go?

that's so cool! what kind of motocycle do you want to get? i think there are some pretty cheap ones out there. i'm definitely saving up for a vacation (it seems to be a trend in this discussion) for next reading week/ spring break. i want to go somewhere warm and tropical. the warmest place i've ever been to was california but i would like to go somewhere tropical and just relax in the sand.

I've had a lot of different motorcycles, but this time I'm gonna get a Kawasaki Ninja 250. The smaller engines mean cheap insurance, and the bikes are so lightweight they can really fly!

Keep at it! If you're motivated, the earnings can really add up. If you need any help finding other sites let me know!

I would just spend the money I earn in online money making sites on something online. The thing is though, making money for me is quite slow and myLot is the only program that I'm using to make money really. All the other ones I kind of gave up on. I hope all turns out well for you and that you can get your motorcycle in 9 months or if it goes well then you may even get it sooner than you planned!

I'm not sire I'm just going to let them money keep adding up in my paypal account. I will probably use it as something I want mostly like a like a laptop or a new phone or something haha.. Something If not if I don't have anything i would want I will just use it for something I need like clothes or what can be useful.. I'm just going to let the money add up and keep adding till I think it's a good time to transfer it out .. :)

The great thing about your idea is that it leaves the money there for emergencies as well. Too many people lack an emergency fund! Although it's more fun to spend it on wants, it may have to be used for needs!

Yes, your idea is fantastic because you know the paid is not that high here so in order to reach that, you really need some big motivation for yourself! When I first joined mylot, I didn'tset up a motivation or goal for myself because I didn't even think I could make it this far, it's been more than half year that I have joined and am still posting everyday. Lately, I have been thinking about shopping online so I'm being more active to try to post as much as I can to be able to buy myself something online! So I still don't have a goal, I just think the more I make, the more stuff I could get on the online store! A pair of shoes or two pair of shoes? Depends on how hard work and how much effort I put here! I hope you find it fun on mylot! :-)

I enjoy MyLot the most out of any of the online programs. I obviously am active in several, but the community feel on MyLot is like no other. Where do you typically shop online? I've heard a lot of people say they let their money build up in paypal and then shop on ebay!
