PC last month, TV this month, and a new Honda Civic Car R-Type next month after 5 months saving. I just blow the lot on spoiling myself and use my 'main' job (which earns me less than my website money) to pay for bills and general living expenses.
I put 35% away on the side for year end tax's (over $600 and you have to pay tax's on it). I then put 50% in a high yield long term IRA/Investment account. (This way I can have something left if I got broke). What is left over I buy 1 domain for each domain that earned at least reg fee for an additional domain (which it usually does every few months). Then pay the hosting, buy new scripts, and spend on entertainment. Doing this allows me to pay the tax's on the money earned, buy more domains to make me more money, pay hosting, and save for the future just in case I go broke doing this. Since I started with 1 domain I have not had to invest my non earned money into anything. So, everything I have made and earned is pure profits from something that originally cost me pocket change. .
I am still waiting for my Adsense income to increase so I could buy myself a candy. Frankly, I wish I could buy an economy car from my Adsense income. I guess I need to wait a little longer.
as soon as I start making some money it will first go to paying my monthly hosting fees and domain related stuff. Then the rest goes back into the business.
1) Condo Rent 2) Savings actually i dont need adsense money to pay my condo rents but well effectively my total earnings are spent on Condo rent + food + travelling etc
I didnt spend it, save it instead, it took me a full year and more to get that $100, that was the most difficult $100 I ever earned, I couldn't bear to spend that
$100 in less than a year? You must aim for making $100 in a month. And quite frankly $100 in a month isn't a big job. You need to work hard and focus on the content quality. You must aim for $10000 a Year, buddy! I run ad sense on a Harry Potter Forum. My average earning per day is $50
