Most of my friends and my family are not at all interested in any online earning opportunities, and some of them even kind of make fun of me because I try to earn online. They are convinced that it is all a waste of time, and that everything out there is a scam.
So I really do not have anyone to talk to about online earnings, which is why I am happy I found MyLot.
How is it for you and your friends and family? Do they share you interest in earning online or are they like my friends?

Same with me. most of my friends don't believe in me. They patiently hear everything what i tell about earning online. But when a chance come they are making fun of me in front of everyone. But i somehow convinced my best friend to join in these sites.
Now i am planning to send out the screen shots of my PayPal account(after i get enough money) to the people who made fun of me. Then they will know that i was not joking and may take this serious

Even if you do that they wont believe and still make fun of you. They will start asking as if we are earning millions here. So its a waste of time to explain people about online earnings which we do. Better we keep quiet and proceed with our ideas of earning online. That will do.

@vinslounge,
ya. they do make fun by asking how many millions i am earning per month. i just say that i am making enough money so that i can pay my internet bill using that. Atleast one bill is covered like that. then they will keep shut :)

Hi dear,
I don’t have any referrals. Why? This is the only reason. People lost their faith. This is the real fact. Out of 1000 such site, only 5-6 will be really paying and all others are cheaters and they will just absconding from the vicinity with no reason. So, we cannot blame them also. If anyone say like that there is sufficient reasons and such companies are the culprits for making such group of people with these comments.
I don’t even tell anybody, and people at home used to tell that, see he is minting dollars through computer and they used make fun of me. I say the reply that I have no investment and if not getting anything also is not a problem, because I am using my spare time and I am not addicted to it also.
But there are few facts. We are getting paid very little only. If compare with our man hour and the remuneration is compared, it so little and not worth also.
In case of myLot also, if work for continuously for 8 hrs. daily, what would be the internet usage utility bill? And what would be the income form myLot. For me, if the bill of usage is 100 the income from myLot is just 15-20 only. As this is the ratio, we are still in a heavy loss. But people sits and work only because, they consider the income part and not the expense side.
However, one this is sure that as of date myLot paid me once and so I can say that something true is happened for me from online – may be by mistake?
So, if someone blame you, there is a reason behind it.
Regards,
Thank-s

Hi dear,
Yes, How we can change them. Many got an inbuilt mind set up and they never go for it. Also, many won’t think the way how we think. All have a suspicions approach toward internet related things except certain bank dealings. Also the concept about internet business and its usage are still not yet updated.
Many are still thinking that internet is just for surfing only and not more than that. People will just go to internet if they require something; they will get it and there ends the job.
Many of us know that people never expose their real name, or any details related to a person into internet, why, because, they first think that others will misuse the details. So, the common man don’t have the level of trust improved. The reason itself is misusing and nothing else.
Hence, unless people get a self reliance, we cannot ask anyone to go more into internet related things especially these kind of things.
Regards,
Thank-s

I see what you mean, but a lot of people are very suspicious of online earnings even if they have never tried it themselves. This is what bothers me mostly. Thanks for your input though, I am sure this is very true in many cases!

I rely on my hard efforts to earn money online. I have tried speaking even to the most neediest and no talking, begging and or screaming has got me anywhere.
Life is about chances and earning online is always a chance. Luckily I do my homework and earn. Maybe not enough to live off. But I feel I have conquered an area that most consider taboo.
So glad you are here also, the more friends the merrier. Cheers.

Yes, I know exactly how you feel. I don't even try to make my friends and family my referrals, because they would never ever go for it anyway, so it is really a waste of time for me.

Yes, I absolutely agree. All small earnings add up in the end, and that's all that matters, really!

Not really, just me. I think the idea came out when I was not able to find work. It's really difficult getting work. So to earn money while I'm at home. I searched for ways to earn money online. Since all I have is the computer and the internet.

it is hard to convince people to join online earnings specially if they have not experienced it yet. but how about showing them your payment proof so they will be somehow convinced that it is not scam

Actually lot of people often failed to get the result as they desired due to facing of Scam sites and this is my own experience that i could not get a single penny since i m involve. So whats the reasons involve in this situation?.
This is always being a bitter experience that how and from where we can get the true links or websites to make live wealthy. If you have any idea to improve my working capability. I would be grateful to you for the act of this kindness.

some of my friends are interested in online earnings but some are not. perhaps some of them haven't yet heard about it or they are not just interested. as of my family, my parents specially my dad are quite interested about it specially when we saw from a tv program that you can earn money by simply having blogs. my dad, since he used to be in a writing club when he's still in college was kinda interested about it. so i can say that half of my friends and family are quite interested in online earnings.

The majority of my family and friends would never consider doing something like myLot or any writing or such to earn any extra $$ online. Most of them think I am crazy for even trying to do so. I would never even try to offer them this site because of their thoughts as well. Even when I am doing an Online Business, or writing here, or in Associated Content, etc. and earning some Extra $$ online they say it is Great for me, but not for them so I leave it all for myself.

my friends are too like that but how much time they r investing in their jobs that much time we r also investing to internet to earn some money.Eventually they will be advancing in their skills,they will earn more money but if we got advanced with our online techniques we will earn millions.So stick to it,I am there with u.

The truth is that my friend, not interested on listening if I said there are earning opportunity online. Even my family, don't mind in what I say...Since I earn online I am not bother to say with them again...
It is a waste of time to story about it. It is also a kind of embarrass because they think it weird to know...
Many people not mindful about online earnings...have a great day!

I have alot of friends that are doing things online to earn money,aswell as they come online to have fun.I think that when people get the hang of how a site works,then they do tend to come on here alot more,aswell as those other sites that they belong to that they earn money on.I think that it is also a good way also to save money,as being online makes me smoke alot lot less.

My family belive I can make some extra money online but they just think earning online always scams everyone and it's hard to be rich or earn a lot of money.
My friends don't belive earning online. They think I'm crazy and laugh at me about making money online. I try my best to tell them it's real to earing online. But they still don't belive it.
Haizz, now, I try to earn more money to show them the proof :D

Im afraid of the online earning opportunities, until my husband convinced me to so. Right now i don't have anything yet but i know that my hard work will be paid off and I will reap the harvest of my labor..There is nothing to lose a\s long your happy on what you are doing and at the same time you are able to share your thoughts to others..
