OK, but just because the average person you have observed *has* done poorly, there is no reason that they *need* to do poorly.
Especially if they come to this forum for some advice, resources, and perspective. It's easy to do it wrong, but I don't think it is hard to do it right. You just need to get the basics.

PS - That is just a general comment, not directed at the OP in any way.
I think you're overestimating the power of an internet forum
Lots of people know the right thing to do, they just don't have the will or the stomach to do it.
Why do people hire personal trainers? It's not because they need somebody to show them what to do every time, they need the reinforcement and the oversight. In many ways financial advice is the same.
