DON´T TAKE ANY WOODEN NICKELS



Do not be deceived. Do not go through life taking wooden nickels, use your common sense, that inner voice that, like Jiminy Cricket, whispers into your ear and warns you of impending perils. Some wooden nickels come in the guise of learning languages in 15 days without effort. The mermaid´s voice tries to lure us into thinking that without toil and a few dollars, we can acquire mastery of a foreign language. Deception is everywhere on the internet well dressed in the shape of ads, commercials, pop-up banners, and the support of influencers. Do not be deceived and listen to your private Jiminy who tells you that by purchasing a particular book you will be happy forever, or that by applying a well-known cream your face will be wrinkle-free. Deep down we know all that is humdrum, yet... Please forgive me for harping on this once again. I never tire of warning my readers, friends, and students. And never will.
