We write what we think will be useful to readers. After an article is complete, then we look to see if there&#8217;s any relevant way to monetize that piece. If so, great. If not, also great.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s an example: Get Rich Slowly is part of <a href=\"https:\/\/affiliate-program.amazon.com\/home\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Amazon Associates<\/a>, an affiliate advertising program that allows Get Rich Slowly to earn a small commission on each item ordered through links from this site. If we review a book about money and you order it from one of our links, we earn a few cents (at no additional cost to you). That&#8217;s not much on its own, but taken together these transactions create enough income that we can continue to operate this site. (And if you order a lawnmower, well then GRS earns more than just a few cents&#8230;)<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Wayne&#039;s World - Product Placement\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/8lgLYGBbDNs?feature=oembed&#038;enablejsapi=1&#038;origin=https:\/\/www.getrichslowly.org\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>We do our best to keep offers accurate and up-to-date, but we&#8217;re only human.
