I've clicked on google ads - in fact I've used google for tthat purpose when looking for something obscure.
I don't recall clicking a banner or sidebar ad. Definitely will never click a popup. Almost never see them anymore anyway.

probably 50+ times on accident. MAYBE 1-2 times out of actual interest, never ended up buying anything though.
