In admin options, go to sidebar option and create a new html wiget, put your html code into it like affiliate links that you want.

Is this vbcms_widget_static_page supposed to be in the list of style var editor? Because its not... thanks.

I noticed that the default CNN Videos widget does not even display. Is there another place where you check to make it display? This and the other one I am trying to create are in the Widget Manager...

Maybe I'm not explaining myself, sorry about that. Maybe this will help. I'm looking for a box like the Section Widget box, Categories widget box, recent posts, etc, that show in the side bar, that I can basically have links in with my own header title...

vbcms_widget_static_page is a template, not a stylevar

If you want a widget to show on a section, you need to add it to the Layout for that section.

See post 7 & 8 about creating your box of links.
