I think i was making a $200 after my first 3 months.. nothing special but it was enough to keep me in the game.
People who are interested in getting into this industry need to understand that it doesn't take a genius, or someone with an IQ more than 100 to make a lot of money. All you need is a computer and a basic understanding of how it all works.
Commit to working a few hours a day and set goals. It will pay off.

My advice -- give yourself time, work on your fucking chump job, and once you make a full time income, finger your boss in the ass with a carrot and travel 3 months in Asia (like I did-- although I never fingered my boss's asshole...)
That's true. There is so many different niches in affiliate marketing. Heck, selling your own product would be even better!
Looking back on my stats I did 13k profit my first month in AM.
It's very much possible if you put the hard work in.
Conceive. Believe. Achieve.
The first few months are learning theory. And I say that because 95% of people will read 10000000's of blogs to see 'what works best', then they start doing shit and realize everything doesn't work (for everybody) and then they get an idea of how to get something to work for them. You'll find your process, and then that theory will begin to make sense on how you can apply it for your own business.
If you work 'hard' enough, you can be making thousands within a couple month.
Success is a function of failure in this game. And it'll take a lot of failure for some people to find success.
I agree with most of the sentiments here.
I started out with a simple goal, start one new site per week consistently, just find a niche and build, build again and do not stop, one of my major flaws in my early days was stopping to look around - keep fucking going, try new things; generally do not listen to people.
I now have nearly 300 sites currently active and with a decent system to manage them all it is piss easy, and can make you a lot of cash.
If this is true, and you really did hit 13k your first month pure profit then my hats off to you thats awesome
