Well, I'd imagine since they are his personal copies that he would get the money from them. If you buy some candy and go around selling it, does the person give their money to the candy store and then the canndy store gives you a percent? He's not saying he is rich, Mim...he's saying get on the path of being rich while walking around by just sellin' shit.

Do I have to get into the mechanics of publishing, anyway? They buy off shelves, store gives to publisher for the books they bought, you get a percent in royalty. If you have your own copies, you're free to sell them for as much as you wish(with the added bonus of being able to increase the value a good five or so dollars just by taking five seconds to write your name. Do you make five extra dollars in a second? I don't. You might.)

^ goddamn at how 9th stole that. I saw some mofos had been pointing out the misspelling so I decided, it'd be played.

Great minds are often used in science to build robot slaves, as they say.

I don't think he mentioned that 'making quick money' means writing a book, editing over and over for months until it's perfect, going through the grueling publishing process where you tear your book apart and rewrite it AGAIN, then you rewrite it, then you get more people to read it, then you rewrite some more, then you publish it, and this is excluding the months it takes to get an agent if you plan on getting a good deal.
