Yup, that’s me and I can prove it!

» I’m making about, 3-8$ with my CPX Interactive top header – okay?
» I’m also selling flat ads, 5 banners in rotation, each banner for 29$/month (promotion) – okay?

Before being an economist (which I will be in the future, hopefuly) – I’ve went to SitePoint Marketplace for a 10 point purchase. It’s $10 USD – 30 days – so my post that includes my advertising information (the $29 one) can be displayed and reached by many webmasters.

Nothing stupid yet?
Let’s be an economist:
» $3-8 / day = $90-240 / mo
» $29 / mo = $19 / mo ($29 – $10 for advertising)
You might think, I’ll sell all 5 spots, so it’s $145 / mo – $10 = $135 / mo (best case)

Why would I do such a thing?
Well, I placed the order, logged to my paypal, saw the $10 fee, and quited. Then, I did it again, and well, before pressing the button, I quited again. Then, I did the math.

    Any additional money is good money.

    It wasn’t additional, it would have replaced the CPX one.
