The Life Math Money Podcast

I’ve been in affiliate marketing for a long time and I’ve made many millions of dollars doing it over the years. It started with just spamming affiliate links on Reddit and then grew much larger. Back in the early 2010s and all the way to ~2018, a very easy way to make money with affiliate marketing was to build websites with helpful content littered with affiliate links and focus on optimizing the SEO on them. You could get millions of people to your website this way and make a bunch of money from anyone who clicked your link and bought the product. People would take it to the extreme and create sites purely dedicated to reviewing products. As long as your SEO was good, you would get traffic from Google and earn a tidy profit. After 2016, the game started getting steadily harder and you had to do more and more SEO to rank. You needed to pay for backlinks, you had to stuff keywords, and you needed to monitor the competition because it was steadily increasing. By the early 2020s the game was much harder and the amount of work that would bring you 3 million views in 2012 would now bring 200k views. And you’d be lucky if it even did that. This is also why people who were in the field from back in the day say “SEO is dead” because you get less than 10% of the results for the same effort but the new guys don’t see it because from their perspective, the lower results are normal. It’s all they’ve seen. The trend has continued and now we’re in 2025. And people are still obsessing over building their SEO. Let’s think ahead about the world 5-10 years from now. It’s very clear that by the year 2035 web search as we know it will no longer exist. Not just SEO, but Google SERP style web search itself is dying. It will all be AI search (some improved version of it). If you’re still putting in tons of time trying to optimize your SEO, paying for backlinks, and more – you are essentially wasting your effort. In 5-10 years the SEO work you’re doing now will have little to no impact. You are already seeing this happen today.

You go to better restaurants, buy more things you don’t need, buy more expensive versions of things, etc. – after a while, you start spending your entire $10k paycheck.
You then become accustomed to that lifestyle and it becomes your baseline.
If you were to suddenly get demoted and have to get back to an $8k per month income – you will feel like your life sucks (even though earlier you were perfectly happy at $8k/month in income).

There’s one lesson a lot of young people learn the hard way: Your colleagues are not your friends.
Your co-workers may look like a friend, talk like a friend, and even say they’re your friend – but in 99.99% of the cases – they are not your friends.
This is simply because of human nature.
