Though the spelling is different.
Parlay = compounding bets
Parley = dialog/dialectic/negotiation/conversation
Maybe "Parley to Parlay: How to turn talk into triumph"
Economist Deirdre McCloskey in fact posits "talk" as the 4th kind of capital after land/labor/money

Kind of actually. Using writing online to turn as much of your effort and attention into a tangible body of work that grows and compounds in value over time

That was an actual suggestion, “Talk Hacking” as the name of your course. Or some other synonym for talk.
But we really want to distance ourselves from the whole "shortcuts" mentality. We actually say "this is hard, not easy; it takes a long time, it's not quick." So I think "hack" is off-brand

Fair enough. I personally love the brand associations of “hack” 😄
Even had an idea for a course called “hack-only thinking”
