I like this article for being so honest and frank. We all want to make money. I remember engaging in endless youtube and forum comment wars during my college days. I didn't get paid monetarily by that but the satisfaction of 'winning' a comment war was super-rewarding.

And then I realised there are paid-to-post forums/platforms like ForumCoin, myLot and Steemit. Well, no more exciting comment wars but the exchanges of ideas are still rewarding.
