Just ME, or is the Adsense site confusing?

Liking YTtalk
I have a few YouTube channels and a website. All running Adsense ads. When I go into Adsense, the first problem is I don't see my channels and site. I see a page with seemingly random data like:

Today so far
$0.18

I KNOW I've made more than that today. I have one channel alone making 20x that every day. My guess is that is my website since it makes next to nothing since for whatever reason I can't get any traffic there.

Then it says:

Last 28 days
$16

OK, so it MUST be just my website right? Why? OK, let's look at the payments part of this same page:

Most recent payment
$ALOTMoreThan16Dollars

Current balance
$HundredsMoreThanLastPayment

OK, so using my best logic. This page is showing data from my webpage and my youtube channels all together as one without any kind of boundaries to show which is which. It's like a bank account statement that just shows:

Balance : $500
Deposits: $10

...however the balance in only checking and the deposit is only savings. See how confusing that is? Why no labels? I need to know what these figures are relating to. Which channel? Channel versus website. Something? Anything other than just dollar amounts?

Why is Google so retarded with product design? I would REALLY love to see the teams that make the products and better understand their thinking. Google is so disappointing.
 
Not just you, I'ved used the Adsense site to make my own ads, it's very confusing and I find myself clicking on things multiple times to get back to where I want, when I should be able to just hit back but then I have to go through the menu to find where I was again. It's also confusing trying to understand where exactly my money is going, I pick 1 thing then the results display another. I dred using it.
 
I swear it can't be THIS hard to design stuff more intuitively. Now one of my channels is a training channel and I'm know for being good at making things simple, but I don't think I'm THAT good that I don't understand how difficult it is to do what I do. I mean this is basics. There is something called labels. We use them to make it clear what things are. Mens room versus ladies room. Hot/cold. On/Off. So....Website/YouTube. How is that for an idea? Oh Google. SMH

If Google were an employee, Google would be on unemployment by now. LOL
