Rather than ask how much one earned here it is better one asks what they learnt. What we learn here could be far valuable than what we earn I have been here for years and I can say I have learnt a lot. What comes immediately to mind is the existence of pea nut butter. Today it has become a staple diet in our household And then there is the talk of dark choclate and its benefits......the list endless. What about you?

It seems that every country is interesting. But they are different and worth knowing.

I learn a lot of things in here. Nearly everything concerning life, culture, and the arts is largely random information. There are some praises and rants about politics that I can see, as well as some that sound religious. Since each post requires a different response, it is difficult to quantify or identify the lessons you have learned here.

@allknowing True, it really does help to address my mental health issue and create distraction when it comes to helping me relax. I have been observing that from my Mylotting for quite some time. I do not push to get a monthly income in here because I really do not care about the pennies that trickle in, which is why I only get paid after a few months. I am just having fun posting and interacting with all of the members here. While the pennies might spur me to write something here as well, that motivation is purely incidental.

@rsa101 There are a few here who regularly get paid more because of their time zones. I used to check my bank may be a couple of years ago and did earn quite a bit but now as you say pennies just trickle.

Going by what we learn here even though as you have said we cannot quantify that has far greater value than the cents we earn.

I learned about the importance of Spain in the Philippines. There are Spanish last names, Spanish words and even Spanish dishes with a twist.

@allknowing I know a lot of History from part of the world (the occidental part). But I´m afraid that I knew (and know) little or nothing from the Orient. I have learned about some of your food here too.

I shouldn't be as picky as I am about what I read and respond to, but I'm human. I know a lot of people talk about food, which I often skip. Politics, which I also skip. Earning I can get behind. I would have to say time managment, on maximizing my time so I make the most. Making my time worth it, while also not getting screen fitigue.

@allknowing No. I haven't either. I learned time managment by doing, learning who's likely to reply to me. Seeing what's trending Knowing the best times to be on. Basically I'm self-tought through being here.

I have leaned that pet are essential to keep as they are stress relievers. It's not necessary that you have someone to stay with, a pet is also a company.

I have learned there are a lot of kind and interesting people all over the world.I have learned about different foods (still have not tried any East Indian, but I will) and customs and different speech idioms. I have seen people care for and pray for people that they have never met except for here.

@allknowing It's hard to learn about the everyday life of citizens from anywhere else. You can learn lots of facts and figures but not the domestic things.

Well,everyday is a learning for me from mylot. It is not a single idea or information rather many that comes from mylot. There are certainly interesting discussions and we get incidents and stories reported from different parts of the world. Again, we could look at things from a different perspective in mylot and that perhaps improves our understanding and intra-personal skills.
