How I spent my MyLot earnings

Today, I met a friend at Guitar Center and bought some guitar cables and a guitar stand. He knows more about this stuff than I do, and helped me decide what to buy. I'll use these when I gig, and I also also use the guitar stand around my house. My hope is that having my main guitar (a Collings OM-1) in a stand, rather than in its case, will cause me to play it more when I'm noodling around the house. I'll attach a picture of my Collings OM-1 in the new guitar stand, near the front of my listening room. For those who are interested, the stereo gear in the photo is as follows: an AR ES-1 turntable, a Kenwood KR-5150 receiver, a Dynaco A-25 loudspeaker, a Marantz Imperial 6 loudspeaker, and a DCM Time Window speaker. Good music is a good thing. How have you spent your MyLot earnings?

My old gal never did care much for getting wormed, but she got used to it after awhile.

Not much of a myLot earning to speak of since I'm still new on this site. But I'll probably let it stay on my Paypal. the chance to write again after Bubblews is the main reason I join

Glad you're here. The "vibe" is very different from Bubblews. I wonder what that Avi Dixit fella is doing now. Does that Sweebie thing still exist?

I do not have a separate account where I can see my myLot earnings. Paypal transfers the amount directly to my main account.

Oh, mine stays in my PayPal account until I do something with it. I actually used a credit card to buy my stuff today. But I still thought of it as "MyLot earnings."

@TheHorse Wait a minute. You actually did not spend myLot money Also Paypal will have money received by you from other sites as well. Right?

Of course, I just bought a stand and some cables. A guitar like that costs more than one could make on MyLot.

I don't make anough to use my earnings for basic needs. I just leave my earnings in my PayPal account and consider it "MyLot earnings" when I make a fun purchase.

@TheHorse Worked well for both of us, because if I did not give it to her, l still had to get someone from Fiverr to do it. Im always outsourcing so to me it was nothing new.

I've never earned "a lot," but I've earned enough to buy things like guitar strings and guitar stands.
