I sent some unsolicited advice one day and the reply shocked me:
“It is in bad taste to promote your thoughts to make yourself feel better and it is irritating to see misguided information.”
Whoa! I do not get a single benefit for the altruistic things I do. This is why what I do is meant for family and friends only. Altruism still exists in this world. At least to some of us it does. There is no “hidden agenda”. There is no “pride” or “making myself feel better” by giving advice.
If the information I provide is misguided, then how come I repeatedly and predictable help people cure themselves of incurable diseases?
I initially just built up some of the things I know for personal and family use. Then extend to friends. Then blog about to strangers. Why? Sharing knowledge is a form of gratitude. I did not invent much of this knowledge. Of course I self experiment. But most of the knowledge is built on top of others.
What is important is the “misguided information” I am being accused of is something I apply to myself and my own children.
I already grew up and suffered under false health, false drug, false medical advice. Most of us did. People sometimes eventually wise up and see the money game for what it is. This is for family and friends… altruism at its highest…
