Honestly, pretty much ANY motivational speaker.

I was sent to some seminars back in the early 90's; Mr. Tall Teeth (Tony Robbins) & even as I sat there, I knew the whole thing was hot air blowing directly up-my-ass.

Take some eastern philosophy,  make it your own, sell some books, give some speeches,  go home, call your favorite hooker, smoke some crack, bang, sleep.

This reads like a line from a  Kendrick Lamar song.

I haven't given up on a Kiera Knightly and Raquel Welch (via a time machine) coming to double blow me.    That seems actually less likely than my win the lottery plan.

I'm just happy to be here.
You gotta play them one game at a time.
I just want to help the ball club and the good Lord willing things will work out.

He comes off as a used car salesmen but his message has value to those that need it. I'm not a hater but meh.

I worked in this industry for about 2 years. From everything I've heard and gathered Gary is a huge douchebag and a pain in the dick to work with. And if anyone is curious, I beleive his 45-60 minute keynote fee is/was around $150k.

I met dozens of speakers - some of them the typical motivational "guru" - some of them the business strategy/synergy type - some of them actually really cool motherfuckers (astronauts, comedians/entertainers, musicians that crossed over).

Most of them are perfectly likeable people. Some of them are fucking nuts or just overly douchey and naive. Basically all of them (save the actual badasses like astronauts) think they are much smarter than they actually are. 

At the end of the day it's just marketing and self branding. If you can do that well you can sell books and get paid to appear - it really doesn't matter what you have to say.
