Thanks for making the olders feel so good and because you really know the value of experience, quality content and knowledge from our old people. You do not discriminate the old as society , people will start seeing this. New money is knowledge and the oldest know a lot from real experiences. Adsense is just great. Most of people dont feel as confident that google will pays and that google will be accurate on their estimate from earnings, but that is another topic. Thanks anyway.

His page is still up there. It has a great design ad wise. The ads are on topic and they are well blended with the site. Good for him! Go gramps!

the reality about ads is that no one trusts them, i used to click on google search results ads all the time until i found out they where there because they were paid for, that was five years ago, i don't think i've clicked on one since, i'm not knocking them but something in my sub-conscience steers me away from them.

What a load of BS. Just look up the websites in any of these "examples". His website is still up three years later, and there's NO Google Adsense or any advertising or affiliate links on it. So it's paying him ZERO now. He either got his account banned, or the reality of a few dollars a month struck home.

People, unless you've got a network of sites, Adsense does NOT pay big money.

@rockyPants4000 Don't know what you were looking at. I Googled "switching mode power supply" and his website is exactly as it was in this video complete with Adwords.

@rockyPants4000 Be aware: When I view his web page in Firefox w/AdBlock+ running (SOP), I don't see ANY Adsense content either. However, when I view it in Internet Explorer I see all the Adsense content displayed exactly as it is in the video. So yes, 3 years later he is probably still deriving income from his site. I don[t know if he is still earning $25k/yr ($75K 3yrs), he could be earning more or less. But its virtually free income at this point & on his fixed income, every little bit helps.

I don't see him making 68 dollars a day on his website from people clicking adds. I pay google .05 cents per add click for my addwords.
