Interesting, I had no idea Reddit wasn't profitable.

You misspelled reddit

EDIT: For those wondering both misspelled and misspelt are correct[1] ;) Thanks for the gold!

I loved this blog. The accountant in me was having a field day reading about Reddit's style, history, and finances. Major brownie points for them, although I really want them to start turning a profit so we don't lose this website.

I also wonder why they think it will become profitable. I mean, if ads and reddit gold aren't doing it, what do they think will?

Yeah, websites need revenue to be profitable. One ad slot that is rarely purchased and reddit gold just isn't enough.

If someone were to give this comment gold, they might be just a little bit more profitable.

That's why they push Reddit gold so hard.
