How often do you wake and think “I need to write and sell a
book about how to write and sell a book”?
Well if your name is Gene Simmons that’s probably a thought you have
most days. After perusing my advance
copy of Gene’s latest book “Me Inc.” I
got to a point where I figured rather than offer a review of the book I’d
actually be doing you the reader a solid by saving you time and money and just
give you the main points in an easy to digest manner. A sort of Me Inc. For Dummies. Although anyone buying this book can’t be too
bright. But as such here’s a step by
step guide on how you too can be successful like Gene Simmons.

Meet Paul Stanley
2.
Cash big checks

matter how incompetent you are.
