The use of the links doesn't affect value and sometime may offer special price cuts, bonus and incentive... It's not all about being paid. The amount you would make on an affiliate link does not make you much and is more about helping other find what they may been searching for while get a percentage as advertising an ad. No one forces any link on anyone and if it is something you are looking for than you would click. if you weren't well than why would you click?

Excellent point, @accessoriesbay. Yes, people can make money with affiliate marketing, but unless they are doing it full time, the chances of making a LOT of money are not that great. The affiliate links, though, like Udemy links and so on, often do give price cuts or other incentives.
And you are absolutely right that if someone isn't interested, they likely won't click.
The only issue I would have is if the post is rife with links and very little content.
