Gene Simmons joins us for an unforgettable masterclass on business, life philosophy, and how KISS built a billion-dollar brand through strategic thinking and trademark protection. • The precious nature of time and why "you will never get this day back" • Why the "get rich slow scheme" is more reliable than get-rich-quick fantasies • How KISS became the only band whose faces are trademarked like Disney characters • The recent billion-dollar sale of KISS to Pop House company • Coming from humble beginnings with a Holocaust survivor mother who taught resilience • The dangers of telling small lies versus "the biggest, most monstrous lie" • Why Gene's solo band sometimes makes more money than KISS with 60 personnel • The power of opportunity and why most people miss it • How AI and algorithms are already reshaping industries faster than most realize • The importance of having a laser focus and clear vision for success Every day above ground is a good day. If you're surviving in America with food in your belly, you have nothing to complain about.
