So, yesterday I found myself inordinately irritated with not one but several people who are out in the world purporting to be 'experts' at various things, when really the thing they're expert in is telling everyone how expert they are.

If people find value in the experts telling them they're experts, and listen to them and support them financially without actually receiving the product or service, BUT they're still happy with whatever they ARE getting from those experts...who am I to judge? They're happy. They feel they're getting their money's worth. OK, fine. I have other things that I would prefer to spend my time, money, and esteem upon. Nobody is wrong here and there is no need for me to force an unwanted opinion on people. Enjoy the Emperor's Fashion Show. I'll be over here, making banana stew.
