I know Steve through G+ and Twitter. How is his advice to me as a guy who
knows me and comments on my posts and vice versa any different than what's
on his website?

Yes, he charged people for coaching them, but not the advice. The advice
was free. How is it different than two friends talking and giving advice to
each other... I just don't see it.
