Be a paid blogger or just keep a good page rank?
This is a much discussed topic among make money bloggers: whether you become a paid blogger or stay as a high Google Page Rank (PR) blogger.
I found an interesting post from BlogSire:
That’s right my good blogging buddies, Google has given you a choice, you can either be good little bloggers by not buying or selling links and hopefully get a good Page Rank or you can accept money for posts and get your arse kicked by way of losing your PR! It’s all in their “Google Webmaster Central Blog“
It tells you how to stay within their guidelines and everything, but unfortunately from reading their post you will learn that you can’t keep Google happy and be paid for your posts. So you see you have a choice to make, on the one hand you can make a fair bit of cash, and on the other you lose your PR.
My take: If your blog has a good traffic, I think better you keep becoming a paid blogger and write a paid review frequently in your blog. Don’t care about your PR falling! Because not all advertisers or companies looking for the ‘link juice’ or intending to improve their PRs — they want traffic too, from your blog. All you need is keeping your blog traffic growing!
So, I agree that this is just the matter of choice, right?

Indeed, sir. I will also take the risk on making quite decent money than just worrying about PR-up-and-down
