I'm a noob

it really is entirely up to you. If you get one cent a response then you need 1000 responses to make your 10 dollers. It really depends how active you are on the site as to how soon you get it. blessed be

If you are writing descriptive responses of over 4 lines, you could get 3 cents per response. So when you reach a ranking of 350 (the number within brackets) you should reach payout level also.

The basic thing is to keep responding to other members discussions with good quality replies . I'd suggest to continue here only if you have the time, patience and a good internet connection . * start good quality discussions * Respond in good quality topics * make quality replies pls follow Mylot guidelines for posting on this site . some of the important links are: http://www.mylot.com/o/topguidelines.aspx http://www.mylot.com/o/faq.aspx http://www.mylot.com/o/affiliate.aspx actively participate here to share your views regarding different discussions . all the best .

it depends on how much effort you put into mylot and how long you are in here! we can't really say how long it would take you! =)
