Very dangerous to work on something where ROI is so far out in the future in a business as volatile, you support this yourself in the next paragraph. There is a reason traffic whales send to PPS (except for some very special cases)

Still works exactly as described, dollars made per clicks generated, you should NEVER depend on a sponsor to be around in six months, those that are around will certainly make you good money, but how many times have so called "sponsors" running "programs" bitched and moaned about paying a Visa registration fee ?
If you are buying a site you should be taking into account declining traffic, and if you do not think you can INCREASE the earnings, you shouldn't be buying. Anyone that buys a site that hit's zero earnings in six months, should get a job somewhere because running their own business is not for them

Fat Ugly chicks have been a massive draw for both clicks and sales since 1996, and there are 2 reasons
1. So called "chubby chasers" LOVE their big women, and they are also rarer since it is harder to find BBWs with the self confidence to get naked in front of a camera.
2. (And I do not mean to offend) Train wreck factor, the non BBW fans JUST HAVE TO SEE, same reason that People fucking watermelons was an all time classic top list link that drew MASSIVE traffic everywhere it was listed
