Have you set your totaly arbitrary MyLot financial goal for April 2019?

I got off to a scorching start this month, but faded in the stretch. Still, I hope to reach my conservative goal, and will set two slightly more aggressive goals, just to make things exciting. The problem is, most of the posts floating around in my head are about things like my current guitar repair and gardening--nothing particularly fascinating. But I must carry on. Hey, I'm working at my friend's preschool today in the room where we have some wicked snow peas growing. There might even be peas there by now, as I saw flowers last week. I'll try to remember to bring my camera to work. The photo is from last Summer after one of our green bean harvests.

@thehorse Just another 8 cents and I'll hit my April goal of 11 of your US dollars. May I'll be in France for the month so I'll not be contributing here but June's target is $12. What's wrong with dreaming?

Love the photo everyone looks so happy. I pick up ideas on posts traveling around the net. I am just happy to say I have not missed a payout in many months. Even if it is only the minimum or a bit more it is good for me.

@TheHorse all I have to say is better them farming for real than farming on a video game.

I'm amazed...well, I used to be...by how much kids and "farming" (gardening) go together.

@TheHorse Such an adorable photo! Hope you reach your goals! I was hoping to get to $15 during April. I'm only 49 cents away from that so if I keep it up, I will make it. But I can't decide whether to keep saving it or place my Paypal address back in to be paid on next payout. And then I can't decide what figure to stick with. Maybe $20 or $50. Either way, it's all fun to save!

It's fun setting goals and feels good to reach them.

@TheHorse I think you just convinced me to save lol I think that will be better because if I cash out, then I'm kinda back to square one of trying to reach payout again. I'll save! Aw awesome! That sounds like great fun. Will be great for the little ones to be outside exploring.

I have never seen kids so happy about green beans...California really is another world. I've been in a rut the past five or six hundred months or so, with the same goal of one billion dollars so this month, I'm doing something totally different. My April goal is one billion dollars and 37 cents.

@TheHorse Well, I have come up a little short in all the previous months but as my broker keeps telling me, "Past performance is no guarantee of future results." So I don't see any reason at all why I can't meet or even exceed this month's goal.

Heh. I easily made my "conservative" goal, made my semi-aggressive goal, and missed my aggressive full-throttle/get rich goal by 2 cents. My MyLot Porsche delivery date remains 2717.

Those kids look pretty happy about the beans. Well my goal was really small for this month and I adjusted up as the month went on, but May I want to at least hit the $5 mark. Hoping to get the pay out every month going forward, we'll see how it goes.

Great picture. As for goals, I never set any. This month I have been off and on and so I knew right away I would PROBABLY not reach payout. I'm at $3.84 as we speak and doubt I will get $1.16 between today and tomorrow...so I am expecting to simply have a good head start on May.
