I have a site that will offer technical help and assistance for a certain niche of computer users. I can either host my own forums, or tie in with stack... but I want to be able to make money off it possibly by advertisements or a monthly fee.

Is this permitted? I want to be on the up-and-up on this.

As long as the content is properly attributed you are free to use it as you like.

as per Robert, a visible, not necessarily prominent, attribution of the content source, e.g. the site, and the poster. I believe this includes hyperlinks to both.
