    One of the fitness people I follow has two apps and he regularly tells his viewers “You dont NEED my apps to get great results, you dont NEED to watch my videos either. I just think they both help. Now just subscribing as a member is just money for me so you should definitely do that”

    Which is a level of influencer honesty I can definitely get behind.

    Yes people actually believe them and it’s embarrassing. They also believe that these rich guys do these seminars out of the kindness of their hearts.
