    How should I celebrate? I'm limping to this mark and looking for ways to stay motivated.

        I've made almost $2,500 with this account but I'm thinking about selling it to someone who wants to keep it up and running.

          Only $2,500 from 2 million views?  I would be very disappointed with that figure.

          Is the $2500 from just Adsense or combined?

            Doesn't count AdSense or Amazon.

    Congratulations!!
    I, myself, am very near reaching 2million views. Hope to reach it by the end of this month (fingers crossed).
    I would suggest to hold on to HP though, even if just as a memory.
    Good luck

    Well, since you asked ... I think you should celebrate by sending Ahmed a nice fat bonus. Or maybe give him back the account, happy that you've made such a good return on the money you spent buying it. It was only in March last year that he sold it to you, so I'm surprised you're having trouble 'staying motivated'.

    I stay in contact with him and I know he is still struggling. Life's tough in Kenya. If you're not happy to give it to him, I'll buy the account from you for the same money you paid Ahmed if you like. I'll just paypal him the earnings each month. smile

    That would be a win all around. You'd have the satisfaction of having made a nice sum, I'd have the ability to help him with money from his own work (instead of mine - yes, I send him gifts to Kenya to help him from time to time), and he'd be able to get regular rewards for his initial hard work.

    Sounds like a plan to me ...

      I had forgotten all about that. Does sound like a great plan to me.

      Might be a good plan. As you can imagine, most of those 2 million views and earnings were actually earned by Ahmed. When I quoted them, I was referencing the account as a whole. Obviously, I have personally only earned the amount since when I purchased the account.

      But I'm an attorney and am extremely busy, so perhaps it's not a lack of motivation, but a severe lack of time.

      I'd love to talk more about selling the account, though. Let me know what you think.

        Thanks, I will email you from my LTM account. I like to think you'll be happy to help me make a small difference in this cruel world. smile
