There's still plenty of money being made. But if you're thinking pure affiliate model, it's certainly not as easy as it was "back in the day". The main reason is the free traffic sources pretty much dont exist.
You can do TGP if you have something unique to push and can stand the bandwidth, but conversions blow chunks typically. You can do better with paid placements, but then that's not "free". SE paid placements are not for the meek or those of small budgets.
But long gone are the days of quickly getting a site up to a few thousand hits a day with a combination of SE and link lists.
Plenty of opportunity for making walking around money, but I'd hate to start from scratch right now and try to pay rent with nothing but affiliate income.
