From the TOU - http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/15

6. PROHIBITED CONTENT. You must not post to the Service any Content that, as reasonably determined by Answerbag, is or appears to be the following: d. unsolicited, undisclosed or unauthorized advertising; ...

In other words, I think if you ask permission, and get it, you may be able to. You may have to negotiate, and pay AB for use of THEIR service to advertise, though. Many people DO have links to their own websites, but most of those were not created to "make money". You may have a problem if your ads "compete" with AB's.

All you can do is ask permission. If they say yes, then you can. If they say no, then you can't.

You may wish to review the following, though:

Big Daddy has given you some good advice. I would suggest that a link to your personal website would be best, and place your ads on your website, not on AB.
