Andrew Cuomo Somehow Made $783,000 By Selling 3,200 Copies of His Memoir
2017-04-21
[FREEBEACON] New York Gov. Andrew Sonny Cuomo (D.) reported over $200,000 in income off book royalties in 2016, bringing his total earnings off his 2014 memoir, which sold just 3,200 copies, to $783,000, according to a Buffalo News report.

HarperCollins initially printed 200,000 copies of Cuomo's book, "All Things Possible," but nearly all of them remain on the shelves, according to book sale tracker NPD BookScan. Cuomo, already paid $565,000 for the book in 2013 and 2014, somehow brought in an additional $218,100 off the book last year, according to tax filings shown to news hounds earlier this week.

The Buffalo News reports that his earnings indicate that Cuomo has made about $245 for each book sold.
You can buy any of my books a lot cheaper than that.

#8  That's funny ed in texas.

This is just typical corruption. Money laundering by say Soros providing the cash for the advance. Just a business trx. no campaigns involved.

#7  G(rom), the problem is that when the day comes that you're ready to sell your soul for something, somebody has dumped cheap foreign souls on the market.

#6  These Beltway Bandits are financial geniuses or so crooked they have to screw their socks on in the morning. I'm going with the latter. Hillary turned a $1,000 investment into $100,000 from cattle futures after only ten months. She and Bill went from being dead, bare-a$$ed broke to worth billions in a short time.
