Affiliate marketing hype

[Veto]

Is affiliate marketing really as great as most make it sound? Is it really possible to earn xxx-xxxx a day consistently? And I don't mean the 1%. Do you guys believe it's possible for the average hard worker?

Most of affiliate marketers are getting somewhat around $20k a year (according to recent stats). however nothing is impossible, it's just same as in each working area: some get millions, some makes $0

I can certainly tell you that there are money to be made from affiliate marketing.
If there weren`t so much money to be made do you think that the industry would be so big?
Sure, it isn`t as easy as some people (usually scammers) tell you it is, but if you work hard you can do it.
What field doesn`t need you to work to make money? For example I came from the web development field and I can say that the learning curve was much steeper there.
