Anybody canning "small affiliates" is going for a cash grab or was never doing that well to begin with. "Small affiliates" take very little time unless you allow them to take a lot of time, and they can provide more overall stability by spreading out the risk. I have small and big affiliates, each and every one of them is a very important piece of the puzzle.

Somebody above mentioned that you should only be allowed in the industry if you are full-time. Nonsense. Nobody started out full time unless you started working for a company. And guess where the owners of that company started? The small guys are what build industries... any industry. Never kill the small businessman or hobbyist, that's where it all starts.
