That's absolutely true, which is why the 'throw it at a wall and see what sticks' method is really good to find out what works and what doesn't.
Making 400 sites that all work is undoable. But making say 10 sites that work and that all contribute a bit is definitely a workable scheme (see above), but it still won't make the kind of money that it potentially could because monetization is really hard.
Solve the monetization issues and the thing looks a whole lot better right away.
But reliable ad networks (both in not serving malware and in paying out on time (or at all)) are few and far between.
Sticking to one thing and doing it well has made me lots, trying the '400 different projects' (ok, a bit less, but still) worked to some extent but definitely not on the level that Max makes it seem should be trivial to achieve.
And that's with me being free to dedicate 100% of my time to this stuff.
