You are replying to the title of the post, rather than the content. Most things on this list are valid and useful.
Also the attack on the strawman is very elementary as well.
- photochemsyn 4y agoI'm sorry, I thought the title was a bit click-baity is all, and was following a rather worn out marketing ploy: "Liberate yourself, you're allowed to [spend money on these products]! Freedom! And here's some personal growth tips to go along with that."
- avindroth 4y agoGot it. I perceived the title as a good midpoint between clickbait and boring. What would you recommend as an alternative title? Also, if I may, you may be associating this article too heavily with the field of self-help. I personally am not a fan of self-growth tips (most are bad), but I thought this article was not bad. For instance, you don’t really think to hire a personal researcher. And also, it’s just a list, not prose selling an idea. Also most “products” on this list are abstract.
