Can you explain a little more about how the wealth generation aspect of the platform works? I see there is a component of affiliate marketing as well as sales of webinars/classes/mentorships. As someone who is very familiar with the ideas of personal independence, mission-driven business, and passive income generation I am inherently wary of the similarity between your platform and something...
