I always find that thought fascinating "demographic X doesn't spend money". It seems to me that most people I have met in my life spend all their money - just on different things.
So the 4chan fans probably spend their money on SOMETHING, the question is really how much? and on what?
Even if you assume that they are all teenagers with no income, in the US they would be spending thousands of their parents dollars per year on some sort of stuff.

- bsamuels 13y ago4chan spends its money on male toys, anime paraphernalia, and (sometimes) videogames, all 3 of which are already advertised on the site. The avg. age outside /b/ is probably around 20-24, so it's not like they're jobless.
- gcb0 13y agoactually it is around 14~24... and while the demographics would never spend money online (they do on the things you say because there is no other place to get that) they do consume lots of electronics. i bet half of the gamers and people that influence game machine builds are on that site and would be exposed to nvidia or amd banners, were they ever convinced to build brand there... see the conundrum? they are the tech savvy, so they will never generate CTR via banner impulse buys. and no brand would build its image on that site. so, impossible to monetize. plain and simple.
