Does every aff program has to end with 'cash'?

can think of plenty that don't

Lets also rule out any word that is close to cash.
Dollars, money, bank, revenue, and so on.

Yes. New rule 2258 All aff programs have to end with CASH.

extreme paychecks

its to draw in affiliates

also, why do they always have flashy cars and stacks of money in their sites?

draw in affiliates

Only if you want to connote the business side of the site, and emphasize the point that it MAKES MONEY for webmasters, should you use a memorable word like CASH.

If you don't care about that, you can name it "Obscure Idiots" or "Gas Engine Dorks" or whatever you like. Just because you have a crappy name doesn't mean you can't be successful, but it often that means you are successful in spite of the handicap.
