I have just returned to myLot and I noticed that a lot of new members are asking about making money online. There is no EASY way to make money, no matter what you do it is going to take a good amount of your time and effort. I make money by free lance writing and although I do well with it, the first year was really a zero. PTC (pay to click) sites are time consuming and not all of them pay.
I would suggest you to look carefully at any web-maker and if they are asking you to pay an up front fee or are offering large amounts of money run away quickly!
There are sites like myLot that are legitimate and pay out on a regular basis but there are many "Get Rich Quick Schemes" that will just waste your time and money.

Hi Richie..
I had made money from online for about six years
and u know what..I earn 100 bucks..lol
Sometimes i feel like I want to give up
but i know this is all my fault
I don't give it all my time and efforts
if only there is someone offering me as a CEO
I will grab it fast..

I have nothing against these sites that offers such schemes,but it is up to the person concern if he has the abilities there is no problem involve,yet if there are payments involve he must think it first if it is profitable.I do not like to spend a penny with a new site offering these schemes if I do not be guaranteed by a friend here ,who might have experienced making money with the site.If he suggest it is a safe site then I will surely enter into transactions with in a minute duration and no more inquiries needed.

I understand what you are saying and you have a good approach towards these sites.
However there are many people who really need extra money and are fooled by the wording of these sites. As a writer of articles I can take the same words offered by my client and either make an article pro or con according to his needs.
If everybody is as prudent as you are there will be a lot of scams deleted and that would be beneficial to all of us.

I just state my observations,that most people who are scam by certain sites were finding some solutions how they could be help get back their investment given out with these site who offers a scam schemes.That is why I am very careful in dealing with these sites.I study it first and just try to enter it as if observing its operation,then i tried their offers as if it were free of charge,so when I found out that it has so many underlying payments,I just have to pull out off the site right at that moment.I do not want any payment because all I want is just earning not spending.

hello there richnai2,
doing works online is not really that easy. you must have the perseverance and determination to do it. however, if this task is your passion, then, everything will works together for good. plus if you combine your hardwork with prayer and faith to God.

Everybody wants to have business on line or work on line. It seems a fad nowadays. Working on line is really convenient since you will just be staying at home doing the business. However,in choosing on line business we have to be very careful for scam on the internet is rampant.

All of us desire instant wealth but it is not something that will come instantly working online. However with perseverance it is possible to earn "play" money at first and eventually when you make yourself "branded" the opportunities will start coming in - from legitimate sources.

The only way I have known to make money is to get a legitimate job. Mylot is more fun than anything else. You meet some interesting people here too. Get good advise from friendly people. That is the best payment.

That is a great attitude, Elusive! MyLot pays not only a few dollars but the other payments are what keep a lot of member here and also brings some of us oldies back. It is also a great place for non-native English speakers to practice their language skills.

Pretty much like life itself! I think for the most part if we can get a few bucks a month for online work and it is something we enjoy then it is definitely an asset but if we are getting upset because it is not paying the bills then we are definitely in the wrong game.
In January I plan to publish an ebook. If it sells than I am happy of course but it it only makes enough to pay for my costs I will still be happy because it is a labor of love and that is what is more important.

Yeah you are so right on this. Internet is full of scammers and we have to just run upon seeing them. Gosh some scammers have made millions cheating people. anyway we must stay out of it and work hard to earn. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead.

I just wrote in another part of MyLot. Scam exists due to the payment processor. AlertPay has saved me 30% after a 1 week dispute (with HYIP). LibertyReserve nothing. I lost about $ 300 (and learn what HYIP is). That's why I appreciate that PayPal protects our money. Other, just work for the scam industry. We (the users) with our choice need to fight against it. When no one would use payment processors that do not protect our money, scam will disappeare (or will be reduced). We need to share this 'knowledge' about scam.

Earning a living online is possible but it won't happen over night. Like you it could take up to a year, perhaps more. You have to be prepared to work very hard and not expect too much too soon. I myself am a writing and use Expertscolumn to write my articles. I find this site to be very good.
