Now if I also get a benefit when doing something good for you, does that diminish the value of what you recieved?
​
I would imagine that would depend on whether the action was initiated consciously or unconsciously.The latter would render the motivation vague at best while the former would be argueably opne way or the other.

LOL If you give me ten dollars I end up with more than ten dollars thanks to our marvelous Canadian dollar.I do remember a time when I would have been on the losing end though. I will give the arguements some thought and answer later as I am a poor man and must work today.Talk at you later jar.
