    If this is the case can you provide the following details...

    1) Yes / No...
    2) Your earnings in $$$ (If you don't mind)
    3) What is your opinion in depending on adsense as lively income?

    My answers:
    1) No.
    2) $300-$400
    3) I am not sure how to rely only on adsense. It is too risky.

    Members, please share your honest opinion.

    Thanks
    Sam

    I'm defiantly not one of those people... however where you said it is too risky, I would agree. It would be best to have a stable job (even if it's a secondary income to adsense), so in case your adsense earnings fall, you always have a way of supporting yourself.

    1. No (but it is very much possible)
    2. less than a 100 per month - not too active
    3. No cant be done, you can be kicked in you butt blind when you are least expecting it (banning am talking about)

    Using Adsense to pay your mortgage is a good way to be homeless and living in your car, unless adsense is paying for you car too, in which case you better be staking out a good bridge.

    If you are paying for your traffic you put yourself in a very vulnerable postion, too vulnerable in my opinion.

    I have donated plenty to Google shareholders, and I'm done giving away my money!

    Hmm.. I can live life with adsense (I earn quite a lot), but I do not like the idea to be sticked to one money-making method. THat's too risky :) Never put all your eggs into one basket.

    Been doing this since 2004 so my answer is:

    1) Yes
    2) $2600 - $3200 (enough if you are living in my country Philippines)
    3) I don't afraid of risk... Only people who cheat Google think about risk...

    Diversify your portfolio.
    Use clickbank
    Infolinks
    Chitika
    Amazon.

    That way, if you get banned from one, it's not the end of the world.

    No, not making lot of money. As you said it's risky. It also depends on your niche, time to maintain your sites..etc..etc

    I would never strictly rely on it that's for sure. I always try to have at least 3 streams of income at any given time just in case one stream disappears overnight.
