hartreefoch,
Right on.
I agree completely. Note the high costs of many "self-help" methods.
It's kinda funny that it's called self-help, anyway. If you go to technology forums (programming and linux forums) and it looks like you haven't done your homework, you get "RTFM," which translates to Read The F'ing Manual.
Rude, but that's real self-help right there, and it doesn't cost a dime. And if you have the gumption, you'll benefit a lot from it.
A lot of people are willing to pay to be told what to think because its comforting.
