Hello All, Times are tough and I'm just looking for more ways to make extra cash. That's why I signed up here, I just signed up yesterday. I started 1 discussion, not including this one, and responded to 3 and have earned a total of 9 CENTS =P Would you mind telling me how long it took you to get to at least $5?! And how many discussions you started and responded to? I've been searching the internet on other ways to make money and found this site and YouData. I really like YouData so far since I've already earned $1.50 in one day, compared to here, only $0.09. What are the sites you frequent to earn money? Thank you for your tome and responses. Bingding2

Hi Bingding, it took me ages to find my way around here so you need some tips. Be fussy who you accept as friends, look at if they share interests with you and if they respond to their own discussions, then you can follow quality discussions in your friends started list. Don't start requesting friends till you have about 1oo responses to your name. Build up good friends and don't put on the waste of time ones. Add your interests and then check the my interests tab rather than searching around for something to respond to. Use that tab and friends started tab. After you've made about 100 quality topics or responses your star will show your reputation and the better it is the more you make. Hope that helps, your first friend Thea.

Hi Thea! Thank you for the great response! Yeah, it is different from the other discussion sites I'm used to like yelp.com, facebook.com, etc. Thank you for your help, you have to tell me about Greece!!!

Hello bingding2, Check my profile for 4-5 great links. (I only have 4-5 because I only put up links that have paid me thus far and are trusted) It may take some time at first to get a good amount of cash, but trust me... after a while - you rack up more and start multiplying the digits! I am still adventuring for more links, but all of them have scammed me so far. I haven't joined YouData yet, but I will soon as I have heard it is pretty good! Good luck to you and I hope you check my profile!

Hello and welcome to MyLot! Its a great place here, with many discussions! Please add me as a friend and then PM me, I have a link for you to earn a little extra. They have a range of things you can do on their website, not just one thing, so its a little easier to get the money racked up. And its a very low payout with a 5 level refferal scheme!

well, i still have less than a dollar here at mylot and i guess it does take a lot of time till i can reach $10 but then money here is very minute so, if im looking for money i'd rather look for another part time job but i just enjoy discussing here at mylot so i guess we'll just have to be patient with our earnings and enjoy at the same time...

I have a couple sites you could try, if you're interested. I can't promise that you'll make big bucks, and it could take some time, but it might be something worth at least looking into. It's your choice though. I have a page on my profile page that you can take a look at.
