Yes there are. Many of those people don't post here though and will probably never mention what they make ever.

Although having a program can be nice, it's also a pain in the ass in the eyes of people like me. As an affiliate, I can make $30 a sale and not have to deal with credit card issues, site designs, buying content, updating content, hosting fees, chargebacks, marketing the program, and so on. Not to mention that you really have to be in it for the long haul and you might not have the flexibility you like.

So I'm sure there are people making big bucks that are sponsors, but I also know that there are a lot of affiliates making big bucks too.
