If he gets 10 people excited about the old: 3 might buy FFRs, 2 might buy SPF, 2 might buy BDRs, 3 might buy 1 of either an ERA, Kirkham, or Other.
I'll bet next to none buys a new CSX series and no royalties are paid on the capital gain of an Original CSX3... series.
So it is my humble summation he gets... pocket change on the licensing of SPFs which he endorses. 
PS: In many ways, I guess that's good business sense. |
Agree 100%. It's called "talking your own book." He's not living in the past, even though he's not going to live forever. You gotta hand it to the to guy though...what a ride!!
