Hi Joel,
While it is true that building a content site that provide value for readers is very good method to earn revenue from adsense, however there are many factors that are beyond our control.
Many webmasters got their adsense account banned. Many claimed that they never ever clicked on their adsense or violate any of google's rules. Other people may be sabotaging them too which is out of our control.
A good example will be at:

They lost $200k on adsense and their sole income is only in adsense.... I think it's a huge mistake to put all your eggs in one nest.
Just my thoughts....

The problem with google is they are changing constantly the algorythms, and the way sites are indexed.Since they added all kind of results (like videos) on there main result page, and that they used semantic indexing, I saw my adsense revenue drop with 75 % from 50 $ a day to 20 $ a day. Not fun for those working on the content sites, on the other hand once the work is done the content remains. But it is still strugling against the new rules of the game.

Joel, I am surprised at the very poor sound quality on the adsense vid. Did you not listen to it first before posting..

I have to agree, Joel. The audio quality could improve a bit. Thought you should take a look at it.
Otherwise, good information, amigo.

Thanks for giving your predictions lately, Mr Comm. I think you're probably right that "virtual real estate" that's content based will be a great business for anyone in the future. I'm just hoping the competition between the big three will yield more revenue per click for me.

Thanks for giving this video.... obviously a steady stream of quality traffic is needed to your site to make it really worthwhile.. thats amazing that 14 billion in advertising is spent on adsense
The audio quality had this wieird buzzing sound...
