Well so far, I haven’t spent the money that I earned yet. It’s still too small and am working on building and saving it still. I also have to build some more readership so that I can earn a decent amount every month!

Nothing yet, but I’m really keen to have everyone help buy me a home!

My blog has only brought me PERSONAL SATISFACTION. The Adsense Ads on it earn something like USD 0.06 on lucky days :(

So I have never banked on Adsense.

My Blog makes me happy whenever someone contacts you to just say “Thanks for the information”.

Do visit my blog at http://jsbi.blogspot.com (It’s nothing great but a Blog can only be a Blog)

[...] I don’t know how some bloggers can make enough from AdSense to buy a car or even a house, but I feel sorry for their readers for being such loyalists and literally making money for someone else. [...]

Blogging’s paid for my webhosting and domain registration. And that was really all I expected from it. The unexpected part has been that it’s been paying for my gym membership for the last few months and going forward too. I definitely need to trim down!

Blogging got me started on photography with a Nikon D50, and also some savings that I could hopefully put into further studies :D

well the earnings from running multiple sites, not only blogs, allowed me to buy a lot of things: mp3 player, hi-tech notebook, digital camera and also one month study course to Cambridge, England :)

Almost no cash, but lots of “stuff” and unquantifiable benefits– a lovely Nokia 6682 phone, admission to conferences, additional blogging jobs, new contract work, great ideas for new clients, new internet friends and some unsolicited advice– all this from an essentiallly directionless personal blog.

Blogging has brought me a successful home business, not having to punch a clock and a nice little house in Dallas. It’s also bought hours and hours of priceless time with my family.

What I want blogging to “buy” me? Freedom.

Freedom to make different choices in my life. Not that my current choices are bad, but it would be nice to have the freedom to expand my horizons a bit.

Blogging (adsense to be precise) has been paying for my monthly installment on my 2nd home (student/studio apt) in Melbourne. Hopefully with the rental and bigger adsense checks will help me pay off my financing in a year or two or at the very least three.

With four blogs under different networks and approximately 1,100-1,500 USD per month, blogging has bought me lots of stuff. Sadly, the dollar-euro conversion rate has not been so good but, hey, i am not complaining. More so since I just started my maternity leave and my blogging moolah means that there is no need for me to ask my husband for money every single time I need something.

With four blogs now up and running I think my blogging activities will just about cover their costs shortly and leave a little extra for the odd latte now and again!

I just purchased a new $10,000 Hot Springs Spa. BUT and I must emphasize BUT it takes a long time to build your Adsense income. I have 4 blogs and 150 adsense sites.

So relax and take it easy…well keep posting in your blogs.

Blogging hasn’t bought me anything. I’ve earned about $14.32 so far. Pathetic I know.

So far blogging just pays hosting fees, domains and coffe every now and then for me.
