Well, I log on last night and looked at my earnings, It says congratulations I have enough to recieve a payment... Well, any money is good money in my eyes. For my 1st month I guess I supose to receieve my earnings of 48.98...I don't know if that's average or what. So tell me, what's average for you in a month's worth of posting topics, responding? I'm really curious to know if I really did something this month being a 1st for me. I know you can make more...The more you on here the more you make, true I know this, but with my job, taking care of the family, I think I did pretty good... Please share your thoughts, and any experiences with your previous checks, have you gone up or down in payments? If you don't mind answering, What is the most you've made in a month from MyLot if you don't mind sharing...

I'm a little more nervous to post about my earnings on here than I used to be, but you are someone that I trust a lot on here so I'm happy to answer for you ^_^ I can't really answer in detail, since January was my first month on the site - in fact, I joined on the first day of the year, lol! That's one fact that I doubt I'll ever forget. ^_~ Anyway, I made more than I had hoped to last month. I set a goal of making $90, and I just barely reached it, with the great help of my one lovely referral here on the site, who had earned me over $8 on her own! I had actually wanted to make a little more, but I had that one day where I couldn't get online almost at all, so that didn't help *laugh* But I did reach my main goal, so I was happy. But after the earnings update yesterday afternoon, where Mylot probably deleted a lot of junk from last month and relocated money to the best topics and stuff, I now find myself sitting at nearly $114 for last month! My earnings went up majorly, and the one day that I had been really dissapointed in where I thought that I would earn well over $5 and hadn't, is now showing as me earning like $5.66, which is what I had hoped for at the time! So I am even more in love with this wonderful site now! *laugh* If I actually get paid around the 14-15th, it will be such a huge relief. I really need the money, and I really have loved almost every minute of it, other than the few times I've been depressed over my star rating or someone saying something a bit unkind.. but I have met the most wonderful people here, including you, and that is the best part!! ^_^ ^_^ Anyway, i think that you did _great_ to make what you did, while having to take care of your family! ^_^ The only reason I made as much as I did is that I had so many days where I probably spent a good 6-8 hours posting here on the site. Sometimes it seemed like it was almost all I did, all day long. I wouldn't expect most people to be able to do that *laugh* I think that your total is wonderful! Congrats!! ^_^

I think you did great. You earned more than me in January that is for sure. I think a lot depends on how much time you spend here. I come in and respond to only about 5 or 10 discussions a day, and I only start discussions once in a while. I don't consider this a paying gig. For me it is just fun. I really do enjoy sharing my thoughts and opinions, so any payment that I get is just fine with me. I know if I spend a little more time here I could get more pay, but I don't want to think of it as work because then I might stop enjoying it. I am just happy to get a payment each month and it looks like I can do that without changing the way I use MyLot. It is just extra money for me. If I really wanted this to be a consistent income source, I would spend more time getting active referrals. My fist month here, in December, I earned about $12, then in January I got up to about $17. So in my book you did terrific since you are getting almost $50. For Feb I will most likely be just around the $20 mark again, if I keep going the way I have been. Keep up the good work.

Likewise, this is def not a paying gig for me...I could not survive off $48 a month...lol... I plan to treat myself to something on Ebay...lol Sometimes when I'm at work, like now and have a little time, I will come on here and post and such...But other than that, I wait until I get off work... Thank you for sharing and responding :)

Life would be such a breeze if we could survive on $50 a month. I would love that. I am trying new things out to see what increases my earings, like comong back an commenting on responses to my discussions. I didn't do that at all in my first month. I am also rating everything I read and using the report button if I come across something breaking the rules. I guess in general I am just trying to atually use all the resources at mylot and be an assest to the entire community. We will see how this all goes.

WOW...Congratulations on your achivement on mylot. I want to be up that high, soon. Truth I haven't been on here for awhile because of work and other family situations so it's been awhile since I have been on here. But I should at least try to get on here at least 3x's a month or so to see interesting topics and see how much I can earn. Again CONGRATULATIONS!

Well I started last month too, and have made just slightly less than you, - so I think we are both doing OK! Obviously I have nothing really to compare it to, as this is my first time too, but I am more than satsfied with just a ittle extra in return for having fun here on MyLot. Keep up the good work, and have fun!

$50 is a lot, I thought I wrote a lot to people yesterday and only came up with $0,14, lol. If I make any money off of this I'll be happy, if I would make too much money here I would be worried since the hourly pay probably is around 20 cents :D But this is definitely a better way to spend time than playing world of warcraft which was last months pass-time thing for me :)

I am always very happy about any payments that I receive from this site as I think it is very nice of them to pay us for our thoughts, advice and suggestions. The amount is not as important to me as the friendships that I have made here and the great advice given to me as well as any advice that I can give to the people here.

Yes, you are so very true, any amount, I'm happy with myself. Also, I feel like you as well...the amount is not as important to me as meeting and befriending people on this site. I have a few on here myself.... Thank you for responding...

The most I have made in a month is about $3.70. I didn't really spend all that much time on here in the beginning, and I am now trying to spend more time on here because I think if I am wandering around the internet, I may as well do so here, where at least I can make a little money. I don't think I have really gone up or down. It seems like I have been making more per post in the last few weeks, but only a little bit.

This is only my third month here, second payment, so it's hard for me to say what is normal for me. The first month I didn't do as much as I could have since I was leery on it all being a scam. Once I got my first payment boy did I start really coming in here a lot more. I actually earned last month more then I expected. I had set for a goal and had made that and then the other day it went up a good amount which surprised me. I was happy, don't get me wrong just surprised. I think you did great at making close to fifty. I see many post on here that they are having trouble reaching 10 in one month or in several months. So I would say you did great.

This payment was my first earnings from mylot and it was $34.12. I thought that I did very well so I guess that would mean that you did extremely well in my book. I don't really come here to see how much that I can make but it is nice. I am mostly here because I enjoy it. This next month will not be as good for me as I have not devoted as much time here as I would normally since I have been out of the house a lot lately. Great job on your first eanings here.

I have been on here for about 2 months, I never recieved a payment because I set it at $50. I am at $14 right now. There are times I can make 1.20 a day but most times about .30 because of life. I am pretty happy with it, would like more but I have no time and figure it isn't costing me anything so why not.

I am satified with the earnings I have made for last month ...I felt like the first month was just a learning experiment for here .... not that I know how to increase my earnings that much ...lol but every little bit helped ...I am now on my 5th week here and for last month I made $27 or so and $5 was from my referals so take that into account too and you can judge yours against mine ...I hope this helped you to find how well you have done ...look at your points compared to mine too I think you do alot more than I do ...I don't start alot of discussions either so ...

I've only made to payouts so far here at MyLot but both were in the $40's and I'm really pleased with that myself I mean its money I never had to begin with so even barely getting the $10 would make me happy...I'm fortunate that I dont work anymore and my kids are school aged so I have the chance to be on here a great deal during the week..I've not been posting as much as I'd like though..I'm planning on upping that this coming week...

Congrats to you! I just joined mylot about six weeks ago and managed to reach my first minimum payout a couple of days ago. It's definitely way,way lower than yours. But I'm not complaining...I wonder when I'll be able to earn your amount in a month.

I'm not satisfied with my earnings, I keep hearing of members who make 20$ from 10 posts and all I don't even have 5$ with 300 posts... I'm not sure why, maybe I should open more discussions and write less responses... Maybe I should just write more quality material.

To be honest, I'm not sure exactly what brings in more money. I know pictures, good quality topics and responses are also good. I just don't know exactly how much. I'm sorry you are not satisfied, hopefully by next month you will be satisfied..Good luck to you and thank you for responding

Wow, you earned almost 50 dollars. That is great. That is decent. I didn't get so much. and also even though intially Mylot showed higher amount I finally got paid 5 dollars less than what is projected. I hope my projections and actuals match better next time onwards.

How many post you give for having that mzbubblie? I really jealous about it. Last month i just spend about $5, yeah i know it's all up to my effort. I don't know how can i increased my earning just like you. You know, it's hard to keep our brain work to think good topics and think what we should type for giving respond to the topics. It's really hard men. I think i should give more effort to it, your earning make me burn up, and want to achieve that also. Well then, wish me good luck.
