I would have had to give up time in the casinos, and the money I made in that time, to produce a book. I did research into what Dancer, Kneeland and others made on their books. It wasn't jackshit. So what was I supposed to think I would make? And now it doesn't matter because I'm living a pretty comfortable life in my old age. I have better things to do than write a book.
The book is just a gateway to whatever else you are selling.
The system, software, cd, dvd, classes or whatever else is where the money is at I would think.
I don't think this is your style... just saying.
