Thinking about the “make money online” craze I asked myself whether it makes sense. Then I realized that the question to ask must be: Where does making money online make sense? In some countries and territories (India?) it most probably does indeed, in others your blog will barely pay your rent (Germany), even if it’s successful.
So I want to ask you to get a global perspective on this: How much money must your blog make to allow you a decent lifestyle where you live? 30$, 300$ or rather 3000 Dollars?
Tell me in the comments about the situation where you live!

I’ve thought about this too myself. 50 bucks a week is some extra money to play around with in most developed countries, but for a place where the US dollar goes quite far it could be quite useful.

Chef Tad, do you realize that most of these comments are spam on your blog? The 1st and 3rd comments are both spam. They find certain keywords in Technorati and just spam away.
I think it would be great if I earn 20$ per week from my blog, I live in Iran and with that money u can buy 10 hotdogs here ;)
I live in Poland and If my blog would be the only way to making money for a living, it should be >1k$
Kornel, so I assume that either you live in western Poland or you have a family but still: 1000$ + is realistic. Maybe you need more than one blog, but it’s possible.
Lukadium: Don’t you eat kabab over there? ;-)
DM: #1 is just my echo, as long a it’s the only one, it’s OK with me. #3 really was…
Skellie: Exactly! I assume that in some countries where the Internet access is quite good and the costs of living below western average you could break even quite easily targetting the international market.
I live in UK. I don’t have a blog, but a website. In order for a proper living. I would need at least $3000+ minimum. I do see it as achievable.
