    Yes, perfectly fine. I'm sure you read that in the program policies and then searched for your answer here...

    No, of course not. There is no real valid reason for clicking your own ads...Though, if it was just once you run a pretty good chance of Google ignoring it. Just don't do it again! ;)

    How much did you earn for your click?

    A violation which is very serious offence of Terms of Google AdSense.

    You can get your account terminated for that.

    Its basically a type of fraud so most definately not ok. Mistakes happen so wouldn't worry about it too much. Just try not to do it again or you could get banned.

    Not good idea to click your own ads.

    I was showing my site to someone one time and they clicked the adsense while I was logged into my account on a seperate computer, but on the same network. They didn't give me any money for it, but didn't ban my account either. As long as you don't do it again I think you will be ok.

    if you click them it takes about a week and they will ban you, but not if it's just one click.

    I'm pretty sure when you sign up you check a box saying "I will not click my own ads"
