Okay mylotters, let me give it to you straight and honest here. The first reason I chat on mylot is to hangout with my friends and check out the interesting topics here because I'm a BIG talker and I love to communicate because it stimulates my mind on the regular.
Why mylot?...
Well let me answer that one...
I haven't seen any other social site LIKE Mylot, Of course there are tons of forums and social sites out there, but Mylot stands out, and PLUS I've made so many interesting and wonderful people on Mylot, I mean friends I feel deeply for...like family ya know. (Now I haven't done this on NO other site.)
So my point here is...Mylot is not only great because they pay us for our time, I also get to chat with my friends whenever, and plus we can talk about just about anything under the sun. It's like grownups hanging out at the beach.
Okay Richelle, what's more important?
The money is only a bonus for me here. The big prize is having fun with friends and kicking the bo-bos.
Okay your turn, which is most important to you, money or socializing?...or both equally.

I joined mylot several years ago, and yes it was for the money at first, but when I found out how fun it was and how little the pay was,,,I didn't look at mylot as an income source, just a bonus for hanging-out here.

Well for me it's a little of both because I have fun socializing, but I also like getting paid for it because that just makes it better. Some people do like money more because they get to buy stuff with it. For me though it's both I love to post discussions and get responses and at the same time I also like to see my earnings go up because that makes it worth the while. That's what so fun about myLot for me.

The money is always a plus while you're having fun. If it was a lot more money, it would be a BIGGER plus on my end.

I came here first looking for money, but learned early on that I would not make much. I still love it. I have looked at other sites and participated in some, but I have not found any that are as much fun or that allow the members to be so connected. We get notifications of discussions, responses and comments. It makes for good continuity. MyLot continues to pay, as many say, they do not pay much, but I look at making payout as a way for me to personally track my progress. So of course, the socializing is more important.

Ok-so I agree I think. I don't think that I am going to make a ton of money here. But it is a really interesting forum. I am new to this forum, but I apppreciate thee ability to read comments and to add comments.

INitially when i first joined mylot, it's because of the money.. haha =D But now, it's no longer that important if i'm able to reach payout for the month.. To me, it's like a hobby now, and i enjoy being here, chatting, relaxing, with no stress at all.. haha =D
ON top of that, mylot is definitely something different from all other sites, because of the interaction among discussions, and we seldom find conflicts in here too.. hehe ^_^
Mylot is a fun place to be, and thus i've been here for years!! haha =D

The money has become a bonus. myLot keeps me company, keeps me thinking, makes me laugh and teaches me new things. I think I'd stay here even if they stopped paying. I've grown quite fond of my friends and genuinely like them!

I agree. I know I would still hang-out here if the money stopped. I only got paid a few times anyways, no big deal, it still helped. What a bonus!

I'm here for both equally, myself. I learned about mylot on youtube and even though you don't make very much, it's still fun and I think every little bit helps. I've made so many friends here and I've learned so much. As one mylotter said, we help each other. I still have a lot to learn about computers, myself, and if I'm ever having problems with mine, I know I can come to mylot and there will be somebody here to help me. Kathy.

I like to talk, too.
I used to love to write long letters. I have a cousin out in California I used to like to write long letters to all the time. I used to have pen pals I wrote letters to a lot. Also, I used to write long letters to my sister when she lived up in Washington State and other places. She just lives over in Birmingham now, which is an hour drive from where I live. I don't hear from her very much, I hate to say, but I just talk to her on the phone whenever now, lol! Kathy.

Right on! That's the reason why I login whenever I do login. I have more friends on mylot than I do on facebook, myspace and twitter.
Of course I have a friends list, but it's only a list of people, not actual friends like I have here on mylot.

socializing, in terms of sharing ideas, thoughts, extending help to other members, helping one another when one is in great trouble. although we all agree that money is just a bonus, at this point in time, i could say, i need them both.

I think we all need money these days,but I just don't rely on mylot for my main source of income...
But it always helps, because we can spend it on something we want or need.

I've joined here more for socializing. I can't say money because what we earn here is very little compared to the effort we have to put in and very time consuming.

You hit it right on the nose. That's why I rely on other sources for my income. Smart thinking cycle.

To be honest, the more important thing for me in mylot is Money :D Money can give me spirit to answer many question, or make lot of comments. I'm the kind of person that don't really like to make any comment in social networking site, such as facebook. I rarely make comment in my friend's wall. But here, its different, I dont know why, i can write many words here. I think the money can stimulate my brain to think lot of idea to answer many discussion here. :D

Yea, money can be a big motivation to put more into what you're doing, like posting more discussions or responses.

The community and the socializing is more important to be. The money is just an added benefit. There is so much to learn from others and some great topics that can really get your brain going. I enjoy the overall experience of the topics, the replies and the community.

For me both... its nice to earn money as well as having new friends. I think more on socializing, why? First, if you don't post and respond to discussion, you will not earned money and what you earned here is not enough for a living... Socializing, because you gain friends and you learned from every discussion you've read and from people comments..
