CAPTAIN RAJU (T) 02:58, 24 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete Very promo.  Subject is good at talking about things in media, but no sources discuss him.  One of many "experts" in the field of getting rich.  Oaktree b ( talk ) 03:13, 24 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Why don't we just delete everyone.  Wikipedia has tons of misinformation on the web site.  Everyone has to find something wrong with everything.  Just take Wikipedia down then there will never be anymore controversy.  I have looked up multiple things which I knew a little bit about (don't ask what it was because I don't remember) and the info I knew was correct was not.  I say take the whole web site down for misinformation.  Lets add shut the freeways down because of the bill boards.  Is the freeway driving, not for putting out advertising.  So what if he is using a platform.  Maybe you're just jealous!!!! 98.167.122.201 ( talk ) 23:48, 25 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Netflix just released a whole series "How to get rich" with him as host.  By 'rich', he doesn't mean wealth but a rich experience in life with proper importance given to money.  He seems well-qualified.  173.2.25.98 ( talk ) 01:34, 26 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] He should be deleted.  He is giving investment advice with no license, certification, education, and/or expertise. .  He stuck on this lady firing her FP and having her do it her self.  Literally the worse advice.  141.191.64.6 ( talk ) 03:20, 27 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] He advised firing the FP because the FP was charging 1% which is ridiculously high.  He did talk about FP being helpful if it's a flat fee or hourly.  I agree with that.  173.2.25.243 ( talk ) 02:47, 28 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Delete this particular article given the subject does not meet WP:N MaxnaCarta ( talk ) 01:41, 27 April 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep per the significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources .  The subject passes Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Basic criteria , which says: People are presumed notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable , intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject .  If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability; trivial coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not usually sufficient to establish notability.

It's his approach that makes him different.  Unlike most people in the self-help business, Sethi eschews fuzzy affirmations in favor of specific directives.  His tips are based on careful testing and paired with musings on the mysteries of human behavior.
