Question for MJ, Tom, or others with experience

[kidgas]

I have an idea for a forum like this (but totally unrelated topic). My questions are:

How much did it cost to get up and running? As you may know, I recently started a blog and haven't spent anything yet but time. I don't want to put a lot of money into it but plan to use blogging revenues to get the forum going.

What does it cost to keep running, hosting, etc?

How much revenue are you getting from ads and sponsors? I want to know if it will become self-sustaining.

Thanks in advance.
