> I'm Jordan, a 28 year old software developer living in California. I've always been direct and never had a problem telling it like it is. I have a wide variety of interests outside of work that include Finance, Men's Fashion, Diet/Nutrition, Weightlifting, Sports, Travel, Music, and countless other topics. Brutal honesty: nothing here leads me to believe that Jordan's feedback is any more useful than the feedback of a random person on the street. The fact that Jordan is only charging $10 and hasn't focused his offering on an area of interest where he has demonstrable experience and expertise leads me to believe that Jordan himself doesn't think his feedback is very valuable.

If anything he's in a bit of a bubble based on his age, location and interests. If I pay for honest feedback I'd like to get it from someone who is not exactly like me.

  Preferably someone much older, life experience seems like a pretty good indicator to me.

  Well, that depends on my goals for the specific feedback. If I want to know how to get a good reaction from people in bubble X, then asking someone in the bubble makes sense. Asking someone further is valuable for different reasons.

That self-description and his picture (of himself drinking beer out of a bottle at a bar) gave me second thought about his ability to give an advice that's different than one that would be dispensed by a typical 20-something 'bro' working in IT.

  > bro And your whole assumption gives me the impression that you are a ridiculously superficial person.

    Maybe I was being too harsh. It wasn't my intention to use 'bro' as a derogatory term.

That's a very strange opinion you have. It isn't necessarily supposed to be helpful, but rather truthful. How many people are comfortable asking someone on the street for complete honesty? Very few. The ones who are, are not the target market for this service. To me, his bio says "I am a pretty average guy, with above average intelligence. I am the guy you are trying to impress at the bar, I am your bro who never invites you to the gym, I am in the front row of your concert."
