    Adsense is a complementary income and make less than 10% of my revenues. I own my business and have started online just to achieve that objective, not to stay at home lol.

    it is not too bad as a hobby and some nice money for wine.......
    But sometimes wine can be very expensive.......... so it depends on what kind of wine you want ...........

    take it easy

    Still not left my day job.
    If I am satisfied with adsense then I will decide what I want to do.

    I left my day job because it was outsourced to India in 2003. Have worked for myself ever since. It has been a really tough road. Now my money comes from adsense, affiliate ads, writing, membership sites, consulting, mentoring and ebooks. NEVER put all your eggs in one basket. The only thing I never did well at was PPC -> ebook sales.

    I'd never rely on Adsense for a living. It's way too risky no matter how much I make from it. It's nice side money for what I already do online.

    Agreed. It's not a reliable source of income, i don't care how many blogs and websites you have. Programs change and adsense changes more than any of them, with the lowest payouts..and that fluctuates too. You can't count on who will advertise and what they will pay, or what adsense decides to pay you, for your income. You have no control....Google has all the control.

    You must diversify and learn more than one "trick" to make a living online.

    I just received my first Adsense check after one year. :rolleyes: But I've noticed that my traffic is picking up and my revenues are accumulating much faster.

    I'm not targeting Adsense as my main source of revenue. But its nice to have as a sideline.

    I'd like to, but I'm definitely a far way off. Once I hit about 60k/yr revenue I can safely do that.

    Wow, this is an old thread!
    But, just to re-itterate:
    I was all set to quit my job.. These are my earnings for the last few years:
    2006 ~$30,000
    2007 ~$70,000
    2008 ~$85,000
    ... all ready to quit my job right?
    WRONG!!
    at the end of 2008 things changed.. now, I will be lucky to break $30,000 for 2009.. I'm GLAD i didnt quit my job.. it's just too volatile ..
