Well if you had an extremely valuable and insightful website which only had advertisements on the side. You probably wouldn't get rich. But if people clickced on them you might get enough. Also, if you accept only donations in paypal you could get moderately rich. I mean wikipedia is entirely run by taxes and they have a budget of hundereds of millions to be filled by donations. (maybe thats a bit of an exagerration but definitely many millions a year) Imagine a single person able to run such a website...

(Even Buddhist monks lived and do live their lives from the food donations made to them. It is said of the best monks that they only eat from their donation bowl never borrowing food from others)
