Not really. Occasionally I see someone in the comments saying that they can't reach the person they've been paying to teach them their crazy ways anymore, or that they can't find anyone who has made the coupon process work, but beyond that they seem to just persist in their crazy.

I think technically he's describing survivorship bias - the ones who fail out - fail out so hard they disappear (jail)

Good point. In fact, it's a bit of both. It's a survivorship bias, but it explains the survivorship.
