I'm not sure what I expected -- I'd heard of this book before, and think it's generally good/great advice -- the title.
but the first thing i saw when i went to the link was something like:
> Help others. Because when you do, they often help you back.
That put me off.
Just because it seems selfish and/or manipulative and/or it's advising you to corrupt one of the things that makes the world occasionally bearable -- helping people because they need some help.
Instead, this book is saying, help people because you can get something in return.
At least according to that summary.
I guess I don't have _too_ much of a problem with that, but...can we cay 'billionaires'? Their entire lives revolve around helping people in the name of getting something in return -- like Benioff Children's Hopsital. oh gawd. :-D
c'mon, bro. like what evil shit are you doing in your life that you have to sponsor a _children's hospital_??
nevermind. i can imagine.
pretty soon a legion of billionaires is going to be funding a 'child sex trafficking rescue organization'.
oh, wait...
