No one learns things by themselves. No one! Information isn't created out of thin air. At some point along the line everyone has read an article, used a tool, and received advice in some form from someone else.

I'm not a good guy to get friends, I'm genuinely just a good guy I love talking with people, helping people, and forging relationships.
