    Would you be happy with $1000/mon earning online? :D

    It has been increasingly hard to reach that kind of target, i am planning to earn $500 from websites and $500 from adsense.

    Can it be achieved within one year?

    No, but luckily I earn a lot more than that. When I was starting out that's what I was making the first few months. Now theres no way I could survive if I made that little.

    It definitely does. Also the size of your family.

    If it's your only source of income for your family, it would be hard.

    I guess it also depends on what country your in. In some countries like China and India, the equivalent of $1,000 US per month is very decent. Obiviously in most of the Western countries, $1,000 US is too little especially with high fuel prices. Some people have to spend almost half of that amount a month just on fuel alone.

    Well $1000 a month would be ideal, I am 14 nearly 15 so it would go a long way.

    And that $1000 is online I think. So what about the money from your job. You forget that part.

    If you play your cards right, then this is your job. Screw throwing your time away working to make some else rich. Work for yourself and then all the time and effort you put into your work repays you in multiple ways.

    No, earn more than that and live in 3rd world. Few years ago was happy with it, now - no)

    Bimal, prices for goods in 3rd world sometimes a lot more than in US for example. Yes, if you are making $500/month now you will live well with $1k in comparison. But after $1k you'll want $2k, then $3k and so on. Anyway don't aim for less than $100/day even in 3rd world. Or...aim, which leaves more room for me:)))

    kder86, don't think fuel in west costs more than in 3rd world, it's quite opposite. USA - very cheap country by many standarts.

    It depends! To be honest I have about 400 visitors per day on two of my blogs but I can't monetize a lot of money from them! 1000/month very good reward for your efforts ( and for mine)...

    I would be very happy earning $1000 per month with my site & Google Adsense! Currently I'm earning $600 with it, per month, with Google Adsense. But my site has been only online for about 1 week yet! So I think that's a quite good start! But my site is currently offline, for moving to a VPS Hosting probbably.

    If it is some extra pocket money I guess the more the merrier :) $1000/month online will be nice. But if it is as the main income, absolutely no way I can survive on that amount given the high cost of living. I can't even pay the transportation charges.

    But I would be real envious of those who had low costs of living, for eg in some countries the median income can be for eg $300-400, then $1000/mth would really be God Send money and can really go a long way.

    Human being are never satisfied with what they having now. When you not yet earn $1000 per month, you are looking for it. However, when you get $1000 per month, you will look forward on $2000 per month and so on
    This is never ending story

    Defiantly, I make $2 a day now, so $60/month. I work really hard for it, and my goal is to get about $10,000 a year.
