sweetie, we all spend, dolphin has cost me in access of $4000 and all i have made back is about $165 from adsense and about $300 from work for people.
and about $200 donations from some of my members

i do this for a hobby, not for the money.

cyberxing also does hosting and will do a lot for you, if you take up his hosting. too,. he is a star and a great guy, so you wont go wrong with him.
