$10 a day

Is that how much you are expecting to make here on myLot?
Only that much? Not more?
I see so many new users (times never change do they?) worrying about earning here without having any idea at all of what myLot is really about.
They don't realise all the friends we can make or all of the things we can learn here. All they think if is $$$
Sad, so sad, that the money is the most important thing almost everywhere every single day for so many people

If the truth be known, I spend quite a good part of my day here, reading and sometimes responding and commenting. Occasionally I post a discussion, too (but those are the good days). I make enough, without doing anything very much more substantial, to keep a roof over my head, food in my belly and warmth in the room. That has to be rather more than $10 a day in these days and times.
Of course, what myLot actually pays me is a rather small fraction of that, but those are the facts, read them as you will. If it weren't for myLot, what I make in a day would be a little less than it is and my life would be a little less rich than it is ... and if it weren't for my life, I'd have nothing much to contribute to myLot, so they both work together.
In all the time that I've been here, it is quite true to say that myLot has paid me enough to buy the laptop which I'm now using (not that I actually saved up and bought it ... but that's another story).

I too will be spending many of my winter days here too and it is so good to be back!
I see that many things are just the same as before even though there is a new generation appearing. They still wanto a lot for nothing it seems and the real bonuses of being here seem not to be obvious to them.
I once had enough for a return ticket to US but then had to use for something else which cropped up and was much more important. I was so glad that it was there though and all for having fun. Amazing!

You and I both know how laughable such targets are. You no doubt remember how bad it was at the time that members gained revenue from those who they introduced. This caused many to make ludicrous claims, which inevitably resulted in new arrivals becoming disillusioned very quickly.

Oh yes indeed! I can remember spending hours many evenings fishing out blogs promoting ludicrous amounts and telling so many lies about what to do here
It was fun getting them removed though

@mysdianait They were seriously harmful to the site. Many rapidly disillusioned members would have enjoyed the site if they had not been misled with such claims.

I make $10 a day on MyLot on a bad day. Kidding! But can one put a $ value on chatting with your friends? I don't think so. Have fun and remember that you can't take it with you, so why worry.

I agree. We should be grateful that we get paid anything at all just for having fun!

@1hopefulman In all of the years cince I joined I have earned enough for a return ticket to US ... but I had to use it for something else and never got there yet. I am so pleased that it was sitting in my Paypal though and all for just having fun with no effort at all!

I have made here thousands... of friends.
I have learned here thousands... of things about other peple, other lands, other customs.
I have opened my eyes to other lands I only knew by name.
No. I am in the goal of $10 a month. When I have enough time to be here for a long time. Because I also have friends offline and to be near them is also part of my goals.

That sums it all up perfectly!
There is so much more here than the money part and it is impossible to know how much we really earn here if we forget about the money completely!

LOL! Not on my best day here, MysD!
I come to myLot primarily because I want to see and talk with my friends.....
Some of them disappear at odd times and I miss them...
Some of them have left this site, but it is the last place I had to talk to them... I miss them...
Sometimes.... I come here simply to read their old discussions... I miss them...
It can be nice, earning money just for talking with my friends, but even without any money, I would still come here for my friends...

I had a sort of dejà-vu when I read the recent posts today. It seemed just the same as always here
I stopped off to help a couple but got the feeling they will not be here for long as they have such high expectatios. I am curious to know how much they get for all the time they spend on Facebook

I think that if ot was possible to earn a lot then this place would soon become one big mess and go down the drain like so many other sites have done. We should be happy that we earn anything at all just for the simple banter that we can make here

Very good post dear.
Yes, you have rightly said - "They don't realise all the friends we can make or all of the things we can learn here. All they think if is $$$"
Some of the newbies do not know that if they interact with new people and make friends that would be worth of many dollars in comparison to $10.
PS - How you have been doing? I hope you health is fine?

Yes, newbies don't know or rather cannot estimate what they would get on myLot, if they maintain consistency here. God bless them all.

Yes I agree, Maybe they don't have time to read the simple FAQs which make it simple and then when they don't get the results (and the dollars) that they are expecting they give up without realising that there is so much more for us here

I've been away and since I returned I'm glad to see those I follow who are not here for the cash. Sometimes get a welcome back response. That's priceless: to be remembered and to enjoy the company of others.
I noticed some new members worrying again about the payout and would comment and respond just to earn. They probably urgently need the $$$. Although, I hope they also take time to cherish the conversations and discussions.

If they urgently need the dollars then they are in the wrong place and would be better to spend their time working instead of having fun here and earning a bonus while they do so. This is not a job but sadly some seem to think that it is
