How many of your favorite influencers make you money?

I tune into a few dozen bloggers/authors regularly. The topics range from inspiration, to investors, to tech, to entrepreneurs. I enjoy and respect all the sources I regular read or listen to. This morning after reading Seth's Happy Thanksgiving post, it occurred to me that out of everyone I pay attention to (without exception) over the past couple of years, he's the only one that's made me any money (with squidoo). By looking at cash as a direct signal of return on investment (ROI), the rest of the information I consume has had little return thus far. Maybe next year those numbers will change.

Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate a harvest festival, whether or not it's this time of year.
