Kevin Trudeau Interviewed on CNN

[jjinfla]

Paula Zahn tried to rake Kevin over the coals on CNN yesterday regarding his book but he seemed to hold his own.

I was hoping they would get into his latest venture - the IPT - but no luck.

She said he spends a million dollars a week on infomercials on cable TV but he takes in several times that each week.

Three million copies of the book have been sold.

I have to wonder how he will be making money on the IPT. It will be interesting. Especially since he admits there is nothing wrong with making a lot of money.

I have to wonder how he will be making money on the IPT.

Quoting K.T. from his web site:

I am launching the International Pool Tour not to make money, but because it's an adventure. I don't care if I make money on this or not. I do certainly intend to make money at some point down the road, but that is not the driving, motivating force. That is one of the major differences between the IPT and every other pool organization. Every other pool organization has to make money, needs to make money, wants to make money, and is consumed with making money - for themselves and the individual people involved. The International Pool Tour is the players' tour! This is for the players! The players have given me and millions of other people such pleasure watching them perform their craft and demonstrate their skill. This tour is for them!

can we say "TAX WRITE-OFF"!

You can say whatever you want but why would you unless you are his accountant or tax advisor and you have inside data, otherwise, it might be nice to say something positive. Duh.

Regardless of his intentions, lets just hope his thing takes off and pool regains its past glory.

Own The Sport

he hopes it draws a tv audience that would bring the ratings to a point that he can strike a lucrative television package.

Mr. Trudeau is realizing he can own a sport for next to nothing compared to the rest of the venues out there. Also, its history and stories are legendary, he's in at the ground level and can control his destiny.

That seems as plausible as anything I've seen so far.....
