It's not really a rule of thumb that "Tell others the truth, tell yourself the truth" means you have to barely scrape by. Plenty of people make good money that way.
- badgersnake 4mo agoIt pays to be suspicious of those who tell you you can’t make an honest living.
- c22 4mo agoHuh, I've always been suspicious of folks claiming the opposite. For the downvoters, have you ever tried to explicitly map your externalities?
- zaphar 4mo agoWhat does mapping your externalities have to do with honesty? Is this a poor attempt to suggest that no one can actually be honest because no one has a full understanding of the entire universe? Because that's just a lazy excuse for not trying to be honest and not really worth being in the debate.
- cortesoft 4mo agoHaving externalities does not mean you are dishonest. Hell, you can even ignore your externalities and still be honest. You can even outright steal from people and still be honest.

- mock-possum 4mo agoYeah on the contrary, it’s been my experience that finding other truth tellers tends to lead to a supportive community, where everyone is relieved they don’t have to put up with bullshitters.
