I never said that bought traffic couldn't be profitable. My statement was intended to get him thinking about why someone would sell traffic for less than its worth.
The answer is of course, they wouldn't. However the "worth" of traffic is relative. It comes down to who has the better mouse-trap. Once you exclude the scammers from the equation, if you're not able to make a profit on bought traffic, its probably your fault not the traffic.
For the record, I love bought traffic. Its the corner stone of our business.
