One other friend
of mine left he was in the real estate space wrote a book with with a major publishing house and then a few years later stopped he left real estate and went into a really strong personal development
business and the publisher went up well you're not promoting this book anymore and they took his book word - for - word and
put somebody else's name on the cover
of it and just
put a new introduction on it no credit to anybody he had worked because he had two co-authors help him with it because he's dyslexic so they
essentially were the ones that wrote it and he provided a lot
of the content and the publisher gave those other authors no credit took his name off and
put somebody else's name on the front and then the publisher was 100 % within their rights to do it so you know there's a lot
of things that I challenge people to kind
of think about what's important and if you're
putting all your expertise into this book you want to make sure that somebody's negotiated a heck
out of it giving you a contract that actually makes sense for you and your
business.
Those who think
of putting things in the cloud should consider the current fate
of Megaupload, which has
essentially been
put out of business by the US government in collaboration with a few other governments, and there is a serious risk that all the data on the site — a lot
of it — may be lost.
