Earnings have been down a bit for me recently, but I'll still make the old minimum of $10 this month, with a little room to spare. I realize it's only "symbolic," as the minimum payout for April is $1.00.
But I'm wondering what MyLot will do in May. Will they keep it at $1.00? Or raise it slightly to $3.00 or $5.00? What are your thoughts? What are your hopes? To me personally, it doesn't matter, UNLESS it brings more activity to the site overall.

As it stands right now, the minimum to receive a payout in May for the month of April will remain at $1.00. Beyond that, we don't know just yet.

I think $5 is a good amount and maybe every few months drop it to $1 again to encourage people.

I notice I get less responses to my posts.
I am not unduly concerned amount payment limit as I normally get those 10 dollars and more.

@TheHorse In my case there is a sudden drop in interaction. Even if I wait for over 5 hours and more before I post another one hardly five or six will interact.

It may just return to $10, but there seems to be a lot of interest in a slightly lower threshold - say, $5. I imagine there was a good reason to lower the threshold to $1, and if that reason still exists even just in part, it would be a good idea to consider a lower figure for May/June.

Even 3 dollars would seem just fine, ten was to hard for me to reach and i was on here for hours.

@davidalicea100 Did people respond to your comments? It's others' responses to your comments that lead to revenues.

@davidalicea100 My bank treats me OK. I think stock brokers rob us more.

if it doesnt cost them more I think they should keep it at a dollar, this has encouraged many people

I haven't hit $4 yet this month, so I would be happy with a $5 target. I was able to get to a higher amount faster because it was reduced. I wasn't really active on here while it was still $10.

I have made payout every month since joining here 4 months ago. I think they should just leave it at 1 dollar it will certainly make more members happy.

It's doesn't matter to me. If you fall short one month, it carries over to the next month then you'll get a payout. It's not like financial ruin if you don't get that payout.

Not sure but I know I wish it was lower than $10.00 because sometimes it is hard for me to reach that 10 dollar mark I am not even at a Dollar today. But if it remains at $10.00 that's cool because I love this site. I was on the old site here to before they shut down and I was so happy to see it back up again.
