I agree- it was a pleasant surprise to find so many intellegent, thought provking well written discussions.
I really do look forward to reading as many as I can. I just need to get in more writing time and rating time.
The money is really secondary to the quality of the posts.

You are too funny! I of course enjoy most the conversations and the friendly aspect of MyLot. It would be nice to retire with a nice little nest egg, but I will most certainly have to do my chicken farming elsewhere if I am to get rich.

Well I too started out to make my 2nd million- (the first one is too hard), but I found out a couple of things #1. I am too long winded and tend to go on and on, especially if I get on my soap box LOL. #2- I get so wrapped up in the discussions I lose quantity because I get caught up in reading and reading.
But shoot..... who needs money anyway ! LOL

I enjoy writing. Writing is my passion. I have inclined towards writing from childhood.I feel mylot is a great platform to share our views and at the same time you get rewarded for your efforts in starting a discussion,responding to a discussion and offcourse adding a comment to the already received response.
Given an oppurtunity I would like to retire as a person who has done tremendous contribution in building and developing the mylot community.
Thanks!

You come across alot of questions daily and it really helps you to gain more knowledge because you get answers and inputs from people from all different backgrounds.

Partially, yes. I'm not even going to lie about it. But, mostly, no. The people here are my friends, and I like to check on them. I would probably still be around even if they didn't pay us. Although, not as much.

I have to admit at first I came here strictly because I thought maybe I would make a whole bunch of money. Then I really got into that first day and realized I don't really care if I don't get the money that I was enjoying the discussions more then anything. I find the internet kind of boring but that first day or two you couldn't pull me away from the computer. I just wanted to be on mylot reading and writing.

I am here mostly for conversion than the money because you dont make much money here its not like you going to be a millionaire. Having a good discussion nowadays is very good i love expressing myself here to all the members of mylot.

Are you here for the money?
Hi there, we'll I certainly don't believe that I will ever become a millionaire by being a member of mylot but if it happens I'm not going to turn it down. I was reading yesterday that somebody had been here for two years and they averaged about 100.00 dollars a year. Which isn't a bad piece of chump change. But a few hundred a year is nothing near to becoming a millionaire. Anyhow I"m here mainly to meet interesting people. To see how people think differently from I do. I enjoy the interaction with people and exchanging ideas. Like I said before the money here isn't too bad but as far as trying to make some serious money I will most likely be setting my sites on something beyond mylot. No offense to mylot but i think that a person would seriously have to work their behind off in order to make some serious cash here. So for me it's just not worth it. I would rather spend my time doing something that is more of a sure bet. But as long as mylot is here, in the meantime I'll keep hanging here with it.....There are a lot of very fascinating people that are here and I find the whole site to be quite enjoyable. Take care and happy mylot!

That's a good one! Millionaire huh? No way! This is just for fun. the "coke money" is just an added incentive. And I'm always looking for interesting discussions...just don't always find them!

My goal is to make money...that's what attracted me to myLot in the first place. I like it alot. Any extra money in the pocket is a bonus. Plus, I have read alot of interesting things and I feel I've contributed some helpful advice to some people. I think it's great!

I don't think I can ever retire as a millionaire with my lot. I won't even earn a dollar even if I spend my whole day just replying to discussions.
But I'm not complaining. I love my lot because i get to share my views here with a lot of people plus I learned a lot from all the discussions that I read from the group. So the earnings is just a bonus for me.
