I started reading and then realised the article would take me 10 minutes. Since the most scarce resource is time, it would have been useful to tell people at the start that the articles goes on and on for a while. Personally, I think there's an explosion of self-help how-to-life material. Almost all of it is platitudes and rehashed greek philosophy with a winner-mentality bend. It only adds to the general feeling of inadequacy among people stuck in the fiat rat race. So, no, I didn't read all of it. But ask yourself, did we need another essay telling people to get rich quick and "be nice to your parents". I don't know how you treat your parents. Cheap advice is cheap. As far as I'm concerned, you could just be another LARPer with a newsletter to sell.
