    We know there are people here that earn in excess of $200 a day from adsense alone, what are you doing with the money?

    I'm at about half that. But in case you were still curious, not much, yet.

    Mostly just paying off bills n stuff. Sometimes you have to spend money to make money. At $200 / day I'll start having some real fun with it =)

    For us, most of it goes back into advertising and testing new markets.

    lol @ zero cool. (I have that same talent too)

    200 a day is not alot of cash brother... it barely pays the rent and bills.
    But it's nice to be another income. :)

    If I was making $200 a day, I'd try and make another site that was doing that too and then enjoy $400 a day :D Then I'd probably sit back and collect for a year, trying to grow my sites, then i'd go on a nice holiday, maybe go to the casino, sit on the beach...enjoy life and passive income ;)

    :eek: Where are you from? Some people only make $100 a day or less here. (Canada).

    Anyways, with $200 a day, I'm assuming they're probably putting a good chunk of money into marketing their site & maintaining it so that it stays at $200/day.

    Thats exactly what i was thinking. Earning $200 a day would be the equivelant of £30,000 a year salary in the UK, which is better than average.

    I currently take half out as a wage and save or re-invest the rest. Adsense income flucuates a lot, I wouldn't class myself as a big earner but I'm nicely passed the $200 a day mark and even then I can see daily earnings varying by up to 50%.

    I think thats a fairly good attitude to have - invest half and save half.

    Thanks, it works for me. I currently live off my online income but I certainly wouldn't want to be reliant on Adsense. By saving half of it, it has given me a 2 year safety net if I lost that portion of my income.

    With my 20 cents a day i tend to spend it rather modestly. I usually go out and buy a couple of cars each day. Eat at an exclusive restaurant and live the high life. Thanks to my adsense income of 20 cents a day lol.

    It's hard to stay motivated when you find yourself putting in long hours for what seems like very small returns. It's especially painful when employed friends/spouses/parents compare it to what you could have made if you had a "real" job.

    Here is a little trick I use to help the motivation. Ask yourself what rate of return you would expect to earn from an investment. For example, lets say you could earn 5% on a bank savings account. If your website earns $1.00 per day that totals $365 per year. At five percent interest you would have to have $7,300 in the bank to generate that same $365.

    That's also the logic behind my opinion that selling a website for 10 times monthly net earnings is really dumb.

    Well, im at about .03 of that but if I did make anything close to that:

    I can think of lots of things I can do with the money, but I would most likely save it up and get ready for life. 17years old, broke, need new car, want new sh*t, about to move out. Money is gooooooooooood :)

    Always buy advertising from sites which have targetted traffic for you.
