Yes, you are right.
Actually chess can help you. You have to wield it in the right direction. Yesterday, I was a homeless drunken blob on the streets trying to score my next hit. However, today I can be seen in seminars across the nation sharing my chess prowess.
This all happened one night when I came home after a night with the boys at the bar. I clicked on the television (we didn't have internet). What I heard changed my life.
"You can't help other people until you help yourself."
"30 day unlimited success!!" Can't beat that, sign me up!!! Now we all can quadruple a Caruana 7.
All of a sudden, I learned the power of greed and women ravished in hot pursuit of me.
Now I own 2 yachts, and a bunch of bikini babes surround me when photos are taken.
If that doesn't work for you, try this new limited classic edition of "Mega Memory". It promises that you will "learn to use your entire memory today".
Thank you. I will look into this self help thing and do something about my terrible life.
It is because of chess I have done poorly in school and landed a shitty job. Chess.com is partly to blame for my chess addiction. Thanks alot.
