Atlas Shrugged - Week 3: Ch 5&6
HOT!No, I'm referring to the one being sold to. They look to say Tony Robbins and think "Look how altruistic Tony Robbins is by giving up some of his profits to charity". The prospect looks at that and thinks "Tony is doing right in the world so therefore I will buy his book". It's a very...- lludwig

Atlas Shrugged - Week 3: Ch 5&6
HOT!In the end, Tesla is a car company and history shows car companies aren't that profitable. Especially at the valuations of what Tesla is going for. Does Telsa have some neat inhouse tech?

HOT!It's a common sales technique, I'm not knocking it but hey it works. Tony Robbins does this with the sale of his books. He'll donate to charity for every book bought.- lludwig

Atlas Shrugged - Week 3: Ch 5&6
HOT!Agree, though you can be a "good guy" and yet have be morally or philosophically wrong. There are many current business leaders who might be trying to do the right thing, but their premises are all wrong. The question that Ayn Rand brings up in the book are they any different? Is a person who...- lludwig

Atlas Shrugged - Week 3: Ch 5&6
HOT!Ayn Rand defines altruism slightly differently. Yes, I know this is confusing, but hey I'm just the messenger. In her terms, you are altruistic if you sacrifice yourself for the means of others. That you hurt yourself to help others. She also believes this is the most immoral thing one can...- lludwig

Atlas Shrugged - Week 3: Ch 5&6
HOT!Elon IMHO is like a James Taggert at least in two areas: His government assistance for his businesses (tax rebates (Telsa), public loans (Telsa), usage of his company services (SpaceX), etc.) He promotes altruism which society very much likes. Obviously Elon is much much more than that, but...- lludwig

HOT!For those who are reading this for the first time. Do you think there are any similarities to what we see in society today? Do you see any of yourself in the characters? If so, who?
