If Financial Wisdom Were for Sale, How Much Would You Buy?
$3, $3 a piece of financial wisdom for $3, come, buy a bit of knowledge and feed your empty brain for $3.
Hey man, is that a fresh piece of financial wisdom?
Sure, man; how much do you want?
Please give me one kilo and a half of that wisdom to feed my empty brain for the rest of the month.
Sure, man, that would be $5
Yay! For $5 a month, I will become wiser than ever.
Financial wisdom something seems to be extremely popular on the internet these days. On YouTube, you can get plenty of financial advice For $0 from someone who never had any experience with how to deal with making money.
Most of these wisdom givers buy followers, likes, and fake comments to build the image of social trust and influence around their made-up brand.
I see a lot of articles here on Medium with fake claps or perhaps accounts with bots followers to boost a writer’s credibility, which is highly destructive and harmful to people looking for a way out of a financial struggle.
My biggest problem with my readers is that they are either pissed off with people like me and don’t want to listen anymore or are already biased with the wrong information and think they are correct.
