What Not to Expect from iMantri
  • iMantri is not a venue for researching facts (Examples: "How to calculate Alternate Minimum Tax" or "Best restaurant in New York for celebrity watching)
  • iMantri is not an experts exchange even though many of the mentors on the site may be experts in various areas. The distinction may be subtle, but is an important one. The simplest way to differentiate is repeat the old adage about giving a man a fish versus teaching him to fish. The latter builds skills, capability and capacity to survive and thrive in the longer-term.
