If you were handed the amount in cash from yesterday's adsense earnings, what would you buy that you really want that leaves little change?

I would buy... A car... A toy car that is =)

A large slice of wendsleydale cheese, even though there's not much call for it round here.

I'll have one of those Martian lakes they've just discovered. Or am I a wee bit too late....?

I'm cheap... but my wife may have something to say if I offer myself ;-)

Talking about wives... I'd better go home now or she'll use my earnings to acquire a couple of neuroses and a paranoia. And I hear that they are bl**dy expensive to cure.

I would think that there are two biases to this thread, if you were to take an average...

1. Adsense publishers who read this board probably make a little more than the "average" publisher, since presumably they're better informed, on average.

2. Some make enough money from Adsense that even if there is only a 0.000001% chance that posting something on this thread with an estimate gets their account canceled, it's not worth the risk. That would of course bias the responses downward a bit.

So my theory is that the responses in this thread should be less extreme than one would expect due to a natural distribution. :)

Dauction, that does not tell us much. After all, there are various categories/quality of hookers out there.

I, that I am not anyone, earned 1000, that is not probably refering to money, and in which case in not a true number, in which case who knows on what curreny, and in any case, someone else but the owner of the nick has hiddenly posted, in which case this is nothing but crap.

PD. He!

I enjoy the thread, but in response to the earlier feedback -

I refered not to *breaking* the TOS but to doing things which could be argued as perhaps not in the spirit of the TOS, or similar. I responded to posts that seemed to indicate people worried about whether certain actions would be taken as a violation of the TOS.

It sems the same straight-as-an-arrow interpretations that I abhore persist in the responses to my comments.

I guess we all have a choice - go along as dutiful soldiers of the Google regime or challenge the status quo. To liken that challenge to "breaking" the TOS or "violating" a contract is incorrect. If you have even been thru a lawsuit, where the rule of law is truth and every phrase of a contract is arguable as per precendent and history, then you probably know that of which I write.

Yesterday I spent an entire day's Adsense earnings on a ticket for a local indy film, sans popcorn.

A ticket to the next pubcon. Wherever it is. ;-)

My boss says with my y/d's AdSense earnings he would by a ticket back over to Orlando... shame he doesn't realise how much I make. :)

I would buy nothing with what the stats
say I earned. Because, even after several
months in the program, until the check
actually arrives...I have trouble believing
it really exists.
