Most lists are junk.

AI-generated, overhyped, no scars.
Founders can’t afford that noise.

Bad books cost $500+ in time, money, and momentum.

One wrong book = 3 weeks lost, $30 wasted, and opportunities missed.
Stack a few, and the real loss crosses $500 fast.

One bad book can waste weeks

I wasted months. You don’t have to.
