Content is king in today's information age. Those who have some sort of rare content that is only known to a few seem to desire to take the path of least risk and highest reward when pricing their content.
If a book is so good, they why not make a solid profit selling many copies instead of lesser profit by restricting the sales to only a 'select' few?
The best books on PLO right now can be counted on one hand. We need more to be sure and will have great new PLO Books quite soon :-)
I have worked on so many projects in the past that truly took time and effort and yes resources aka ($$$) to bring them to fruition. In the end the reason that they were successful is these products and services are new, useful and not obvious to others. They truly offer much more value than the selling price and appealed to wide niches in the mass market.
Mason you are a bit diplomatic to restate the obvious path to success that others try to follow via shortcut routes ie HIGH PRICE/Secret Forumula/Exclusivity/...
Lastly, I did very well through the 90's thanks in large part to content that was found in mainstream publications (much of it dealing with the mental and psychological aspects of my activities) and today enjoy a nice lifestyle as a result. I have to say the obvious applies here with the obnoxiously high priced knowledge (LOL) and limited distributions schemes and scams that have been surfacing lately here at 2+2 and across the net. Look at the truth for what it is and not what you want it to be -> for those of you considering being a - - - - and separated from your money without receiving real value in return.
Warm regards Mason and thanks for your writings/contribs in the past...
