I think it's a very cool experiment. I could see it working very well. However, no pay and only 10% of the profits doesn't seem like such a great deal.
To me, getting a full time job and doing affiliate marketing at night--keeping 100% of the profits, seems like it would be a better deal.
There are many very profitable affiliate companies in San Francisco that both pay well and offer revenue sharing deals to their workers. These companies really know what they are doing in the lead gen/affiliate space and offering a decent base salary is small peanuts to them.
You could be right, but I suspect the groups of people that enjoy building software and doing affiliate marketing have a relatively small area of overlap.
