I know most of you people really like this site mylot because here you can earn some money while you have fun discussing topics with other people. Ok, I agree, is one of the best online-earning programs I think. But we all have problems and other things to care about, I mean, some of us don't have enough time to spend at online earning sites, and that's my case. I don't have the time I'd like to spend here, so I can't earn the money I'd like to earn. So I'm thinking In leaving this site soon. Maybe I don't leave completely, but I'll use it less. What about you.. would you leave mylot if you have any problem, or not enough time? Tell me please, what should I do, and what would you do... Thanks everyone.

Hi. ricextreme. As much as I love myLot, I wished that I could earn more money here. I mean, I am here almost all day long. I would like to be paid more for my hard efforts. If you feel that you have to leave, then do what you must do. No one should pressure on you for trying to stay and stick it out. If you have time and just want to post feel free to do so. I wish you the best of luck in whatever you choose to do though.

@cream - in the end i think if you can't be too active on here then come now and then I have marathons when I have times when I am active and times when I am not active lol. I understand MYLOT doesn't pay the best and it won't make you rich in the end but hey, it's worth then being on facebook or myspace or twitter all day and not getting paid for it lol. Keep up the great work. All day is long. I don't know how you do it haha @vonmac - shah I agree with you wow.. All day is just wow I remember i use to do that but i don't know how I did it but I did it haha. $20 a month mines extreme active participation lol. That would me 40+ post a day haha and checking back on those post and the post on your discussion will get you $20 and up haha @fannitia -

mylot is also a very slow earner for me i spend what time i can on here which isnt much but i just dont think of the earning as i do as much as time allows my earning are slowly going up and when i reach cashout limit it will be good but i dont look at it as making a goal of being here constantly to reach cashout as it takes me long

I have gone through spurts where I would be active for a while and then nothing for a year or more. This is the third time I have become extremely active and I will be receiving my third payout next month. What you might do is take a break. I left my notifications on so that if something interesting came up, I could jump in and respond, but I didn't come to the site every day like I do now. During the last hiatus, I made less than $1 (a period of a year or so), but it gave me a good start on my current payout. I don't know if that would interest you, but if at some point in the future you have time to come in here again it would be good to already have an active account and have your rating already instead of having to start from scratch. I'm sure if you log in once in a while to respond to one discussion that you won't lose your balance. Good luck!

I have left before for about a year, and now I'm back. I just use it to my convenience and come on when I want to, when I feel like it. You can always come back. (Just remember you earnings may disappear after a period though.)

i think MyLot is a good way to pass the time - like i said, if i find myself having some time during the day, i can log-in mylot and earn.nothing to lose but something to gain.it's not hard to share your thoughts and insights as well as wanting to know the opinion of others. you go to other forums and participate but you don't get paid for it.at least here, you do! =) - but i would love to earn from this site tho..lol

Yes you don't have to be active all the time. Mylot is a very slow earner and you need a lot of time and time to type and type to earn money and money. That's what mylot is admin can't pay us a fortune but only what they earn for themselves and us. So we can't always make a heap load of money and we need lots of writing not short one liners. So enjoy mylot and I hope you don't go. Happy mylotting, mylotters.

i dont spend a lot of time on here but enough to make payout every so often. i think this is probably the best site to make a little bit of extra cash but it requires hard work and dediction.

I left mylot alone for oever a year before, I was involved other stuff and then I got pregnant with my son so I didn't feel like sitting at home to do this in my pregnancy and now my son is born and I'm back for this. I think mylot is a very good site. I would like to keep doing this when I have spare time.

There are times when we all can't do the things we want to do. Things happen in our life that we can't control, and we don't have as much time. I would not leave completely. Just post less. There is no set amount of time that you have to devote to MyLot. Maybe things will turn around and you will have more free time, so don't leave!

Especially delineating the about the problems. Excavating the solutions in mylot is very easy. We can find many genius personalities here. So, maximum no body wants to leave mylot, once they enter into here. But my personal openion it is giving me good friends... Thanks for sharing, have a nice day,

For me, it's about give and take. If you want to earn money, you need to spend time and effort. There is no free lunch in this world. At first, i have the same feeling where i dont have time to spend for mylotting. But after, i set target, 10 responds per day. Of course, if there are no discussions that can attract me, then may be i just give respond for 6-7 topic. I think it good enough if i keep this. Remember, this is extra money.

If you are not planning to leave just remember to check it before 90 days or it seems your account get suspended To be on mylot you have to spend few minutes here, maybe you can continue I think

I would not leave mylot at all. Yes, we can earn money on here, it isn't much but it does all add up, but i do love creating discussions and also responding to other peoples discussions. I have met some wonderful people on here and so i enjoy this site for a few reasons, not just for the money. I earn very little but yet i work a full time job, i could do with spending more time on here to earn more but that is not possible, with a full time job and i am also a single parent, then there are things like cooking, cleaning, shopping etc, i just don't really have much time when i do come to mylot. I don't earn much at all in mylot and i am not on here everyday, i just try to get on when i can, the money will slowly build up and that is fine with me. I know i won't get much in the way of money from here as i would have to be on everyday and for long periods of time, but as stated before, this site is great and also has amazing people, so i will always stay here, it is just a bonus when i have earned enough to cashout. Hope you decide to stay, any money no matter how small is better than none.

Hi Dear Ricextreme as discussed many times earlier I strongly feel that Mylot is not at all a good site to make money as you can't make quick money here without putting in real hard work! Here Only the members who are really interested in spending some quality time and who are not very eager to make quick money can survive! If you can't give sufficient time here , it is natural that you can't get good earnings too! But again you say that you want to make money on line! In fact making money on line is not really easy one! You may have come across some sites which may be showing you the moon! But such sites are often end to be the Scams at the end! In Mylot though the earnings may be less but we are sure to get them for sure, as I know this site from its inception and I received payments few times from this site so far! Well if you don't have enough of time just participate here and spend what ever small time you can spare as you ca make some money out of it and you will be sure to get that into Paypal account! Since I was busy with my household problems I couldn't participate on this site for about two years or so! But having sorted out the problems ,now I am back and I am trying to give as much time I can spare on this site and I am happy as this site keeps me happy and I am making few cents per day, which gives an encouragement in my life, though this is nothing for any member on this site! So be cool and think again before taking any decision as this is a good and legit site and it cares and pays the members! All the best! Thanks !

I've been tempted to leave a couple of times, for different reasons, but never because I didn't have "enough" time. It seems to me that even if I only spend a little time here, I still enjoy it, & I still profit by it, so why should that make me abandon it altogether? I suppose it all depends on your definition of "enough." I mean, how much is "enough" for you? Are you enjoying the time you spend here? Or is it that you feel obligated to answer all letters? You needn't, you know. There are thousands of people here, & no-one can answer all letters! Why not just enjoy what time you can spend, here? Or is it that you want to make lots more money than time allows, & you're here for the money, not the fun? If so, that's fine, & understandable, but surely you knew coming in that MyLot only pays pennies, & if you were looking for "real" money, your efforts & time would be spent better elsewhere? It's up to you, but I wouldn't cheat myself. I'd just use it when I had time, & let it lie 'til I had time again. After all, it's not costing you anything, right? As for me, I'm here for the fun. The money's just gravy. Maggiepie “Hope is a great breakfast, but a poor supper.” ~ Sir Frances Beacon

I would never leave mylot even though i don't have enough time in here. I'm always busy nowadays and i have been less active than i used to, but then i still open mylot everyday just to read what has been posted by my friends or rating them. I would respond to one or two discussions, unlike before. However, i still find myself back in mylot everyday and i just can't seem to get away from it because for me this is best community to share my views. You are free to leave if you are not happy in here anymore. If you think being here is a waste of time then you can do that too. In my case i just think that mylot is one of my stress reliever, so i think that's why i keep coming back.

Yes I agree with you no enough time for spending online and mylot pay but its pay is very slow only .1 cent in two or three days. Even the discussion is more. In 3 months deposited in my account .90 cents only. I love this site but some time I hate this site I am confused what will I do.

While many people come to MyLot with the intention of making a nice living, After about a month they figure out that is not the case. I will be the first to admit that was why I chose mylot over other sites, like epin****ns (not to name any names). However, Quickly I realized this is a good community and unless your writing 1000 QUALITY Articles a day, You wont even have enough money to pay for your weekly gasoline. I will continue to do MyLot because I do enjoy writing and responding to others. If I can help with someones questions I'm more then happy to do it. The only other site I do, Which I make out rather good on is: http://www.swagbucks.com/refer/extrabonus It only takes me about 5 minutes per day and Ive been able to get a prize every single week since I signed up, It has only been a $5 Amazon Gift Certificate but I have 28 of the suckers. I know posting referral links isn't allowed, But I want people to know you can do other sites (I'm a member of over 15 various get paid sites and swagbux is by far the best for what it is). While MyLot is one of my Favorite when it comes to writing. Anyone who does sign up, Make Sure to Friend me and I will teach you everything I know that way you can also get prizes, By the way on swagbux I don't rely on referrals, As I only have 6-7 and they only pay a small percentage of the points your referrals get. You can always take a small break on myLot, There is a lot of GREAT People on here... Please don't leave for good, Your a Good Member... I have seen your posts before this one and your ALWAYS VERY INFORMATIVE AND AS HELPFUL AS YOU CAN POSSIBLY BE. I would be more then happy to help you on swagbux, Even if YOU or ANYONE else does not sign up under me just contact me and I will help you, Especially if I can have you making enough money on Swagbux so you dont end up quiting myLot because myself and MANY OTHERS would absolutely hate for you to go! Best Wishes and Hope To Hear From You Soon! Be Safe and God Bless Everyone

Hello ricextreme! :) I'm new here in myLot and I don't have enough earnings yet to actually say that I've withdrawn something from my bank account. To be honest, I find myLot a very slow means of earning money but I do think it's only fair that way because us myLotters don't really do that much extraneous activities in order to earn money other than sharing our ideas with different people online. If I were in your shoes, I would set my priorities straight first and I'm pretty sure myLot wouldn't make it to the number one spot on my list. After all, I only see this as a hobby with the money-earning part as the bonus. I suggest that you don't leave completely though. I mean, little money or big money, it's still money right? It can still buy you stuff. Besides, you don't only earn money with this kind of website. You get to voice out your opinion to the world and that's a good thing, right? I hope my opinion did shed light on your dilemma. Have a nice day! :)
