GENE SIMMONS - "Stop Hanging Out With Guys Who Just Want To Go To The Bar And Get Drunk"
September 19, 2016, 8 years ago
Most people spend 40 hours a week earning money and 128 hours spending it. That was KISS bassist and vocalist Gene Simmons' premise Sunday (September 18th) for his business symposium at Morongo Casino Resort & Spa in Cabazon, California, reports Fielding Buck of The Press Enterprise.
But Simmons said in a backstage interview before the talk, "Qualification experience is highly overrated. Our president was elected twice without a resume or experience. He became the most powerful man on earth."
"At the outset you know nothing, and you have to surround yourself with winners. Stop hanging out with guys who just want to go to the bar and get drunk. They will expect you to pick up the tab. The bar is where you unwind. It's tough to go there and learn anything. I'd rather hang out with better looking people, smarter people, all the people who make me look better and take stock of myself."
"Know what you know, and know what you don't know. If you like Coca-Cola, if you think it's a good product, that's what they always tell you, keep your snoot close to the ground, take your play money and invest in the stock market."
