You lost me on the title of this post "If X I'd be rich", without reading a single word immediately my reaction is "that's an incredibly naive or just plain stupid viewpoint". After reading the blog post my initial reaction was correct.
Heck, I'd probably be a billionaire if only someone had invested in my first startup /s
See how silly that sounds? Also as others have pointed out Amazon is not the only advertiser on the planet, you just aren't able to advertise on Amazon. I'm not saying being able to run ads on Amazon wouldn't be profitable but without comparing or even trying other methods I find the whole "but only if..." tone of the post even more ridiculous.
The author was clearly not serious if you read the post. He writes satire and this whole thing was a dressed up complaint about Amazon’s advertising algorithms not allowing him to advertise due to the content of his book.

It's possible that he was being facetious.
