    Is there anybody here that actually makes a living off adsense? I don't wanna know how I was just curious.

    Yep, there's a few. But it is really hard to achieve and you are lucky if you ever reach that level.

    I love my adsense money every month..live off it no, but it definitely helps. I think you just have to realize that adsense is alot like every other way of making money online, you have to work for it by updating the filters, adjusting placement colors etc...after you get it tweaked out right you can really make a decent monthly check with it!

    Il be honest and say that i personally dont, but im sure many are able.

    As always i would recommend trying to get big bucks from adsense but for your own safety, supplement it with other incomes too, or make adsense your supplement, but dont rely on it.

    It all depends on the amount of traffic you have going to your site. Most of us don't have the traffic count to make enough money on adsense, thats the problem.

    ^ I totally agree its a numbers game. Adsense is never something to count on like a regular paycheck. Google is moody and always changing, not to mention if you don't keep filtering MFA sites off of your ads you'll end up with low cost clicks..when you even get clicks :)

    There are a few but overall it is just a supplement to other money earning ventures. 99% of the stories of thousands a month in Adsense is pure bull. They are mostly newbies who are trying to impress others. Is it worth adding to your site? I think so. It normally pays for my hosting and domains so anything else I earn from other sources I can use for promotions or profit.

    I can talk for myself, hard work makes me over $1000 per month today from adsense.
    I won't/can't quit my job as I run the company :D, still I wanna start making $3000 per month so I can buy my Ferrari in 5 years. :)

    I think it also has alot to do with your niche. If you a very general directory, for example, you aren't going to get paid as much as you would for mesotheliomia website (ok, my brain is lacking, best topics I could come up with LOL) You really have to put it all in perspective and be real about what you can possibly get from adsense. This isn't to say start up a mesothelioma website when you know nothing about it, you just have to really think about alot of things in order to make money with adsense.
