How much do JFK experts make?
« on: April 19, 2020, 02:20:20 PM »
Dale Myers' book is self published and sells for like $65. That sounds like he makes a nice profit, probably $50 on each book sale.

Judy Vary Baker is going strong at JFK conferences and numerous books. Don't know how many books she's actually sold though. But she probably makes a nice bit speaking at JFK conferences.

Are any of these people millionaires do you think?

Well, Bugliosi was. He got a million in advance for his book!

But spent like 15 years writing the book. Plus paid two writers to help him.

Wouldn't he have made more just working as a lawyer?

He will have had his reasons for doing what he did. I just answered your question.

No you didn't. What were his reasons?

He wasn't a JFK expert. That's why he needed 2 ghost writers and it took him 20 yrs.

Nice door stop though.

I doubt that book sold too many copies though. I'd say whoever gave him the million dollars upfront payment lost their money.
