Presumably because that's the one he gets the referral for. I don't really care that much because I know there is a better link out there, but it makes him seem like it's all about the $$$$)
You do seem a tad militant though- I definitely don't agree with the chip on your shoulder
BTW, how much do these bloggers make whenever someone receives a CC using their link?
1- its not only referrals for the CCs but every time he puts up a link eg Jos A Bank and screams how great of a deal it is he gets his $$ (JAB is 10% and more at times)

2- Sorry you think I have a chip on my shoulder but thats your right even if its not so

3- I Never said any other Blogger didnt make any $$ off their CC links , some dont. A few yrs ago when there were alot less of them they simply were hoping that if they got a few it would pay the expenses of running the site. Alot are still like that and not running it as a Biz. Take a look at TFG on the bottom is a Disclaimer that he earns $$ when you purchase or get things via his links, or simply clicks onto them.

But thats another site that I feel has changed for the worst $$ driven but alot less so then DD.And he donates the profits from the sale of his book to charity.

as for how much they make if I told you your hair would stick up straight, its not pennies , its a big biz
