Nathan discusses why it is important to have multiple price points.

If I tell you the book is $39, you need to compare the value to something else, something which I don’t have control over. But if I tell you the book is $39, but for $79 you can buy the book plus all these great videos and code samples, then you are comparing the two packages to each other. All of a sudden $39 sounds reasonable, and you are trying to decide if the extra value in the $79 package justifies the price increase.

Reading through the library of YCombinator, came across this awesome "lesson on elementary worldly wisdom" by Charlie Munger.

Over the long term, it's hard for a stock to earn a much better return than the business which underlies it earns. If the business earns 6% on capital over 40 years and you hold it for that 40 years, you're not going to make much different than a 6% return—even if you originally buy it at a huge discount.

Before ignoring this tip, I would highly recommend you to try the above as the default search engine in Chrome (at-least for a week). It is the Google's "I am Feeling Lucky™" search.

I began using the "I am Feeling Lucky" (IAFL) link in one of my websites to link to specific details. The results were overwhelming as the accuracy was more than 90%. Since then I started using it as my default search engine.

This is wow! Earlier I used to make a score list of daily rituals to get the important (and un-motivating) things done. DayScore converts that concept into an awesome web platform to "reinforce positive habits by keeping score."
