Fraud and fakery.

And there's something about the nature of wanting to be a guru that is attractive.

It's kind of like politics, right?

The people who seek power tend to be people who are flawed in certain ways.

The people who deserve power don't seek it.

And so I wonder if it's the same thing with like the kind of self-help guru space or-

if it's a bias where you just really remember the cases where they turn out to be frauds because it's so damning, right?

Given the front that they present.

And so maybe it's just that it actually strikes a bigger chord or is it actually more frequent?

I don't know.

What does that mean?

Who do you know?

What are you talking about?

Well, let me give you the nuance here.

What does legit mean?

So what I don't mean by legit is you live a perfect life because no one does.

So that's not the criteria.

If that's the criteria, then nobody should ever, there is no such thing as this.

The second is that, well, you had these problems and that's why you're, you know, you had these problems.

Look at your broken past.
