snake oil salesmen are selling we know you guys are readers so let's see how many of these books have you read so far let us know in the comments and as for those of you now you know where we're going with this here's your bonus the future of learning is personalized knowledge we don't believe in cookie cutter solutions the type of advice that works for everybody because you're probably not like everybody the kind of financial advice that works for a 30 year old male in the u.s might not work for a 40 year old woman in the philippines your goal in life is to improve improve life as a whole that includes money but also happiness mental health relationships and your understanding of the world at alux we're building a new kind of learning the kind that does just that not only are we consuming tremendous quantities of knowledge we are processing them through our own filters and squeezing out the only juice that makes a difference for us the alux app is that future it's just a matter of time until we reach a critical point in our app content and then machine learning can start sorting through it all to find which ones serve you and those very similar to you the most we hand pick and structure the knowledge but our narrow ai will determine what actually has an impact and to whom it should be delivered a year from now the alux app will blossom into something extraordinarily valuable for those who keep using it which is why we want you the true aluxers to try because of the way apple and google interacts with different governments we noticed that the app price was different around the world due to additional taxes imposed on digital goods and we don't think that's fair we don't think that someone in india or ghana should pay more for a digital good than someone from the united states or western europe which is why we're introducing geopricing for the app although we'll be taking a financial loss because it's all eating into our already thin profits we believe it's the right thing to do so from today on in both the apple and the google store you should pay no more than 99 for the 365 day subscription but we're not stopping there if we get to 1 000 positive reviews on the apple store and play store we'll introduce a coupon code option to start rewarding the most loyal aluxers with special perks in the app so you know what to do alex sir
