I agree that the LMB world record is way more lucrative, but didn't Al McReynolds make quite a bit of dough that he pissed away after he got the record?
IMHO , yes, but think all that amounts to 20-30K. You dont get much $ from SS or any mag, and how much could seminars and events get you? Thats only good for a few years, after that your story will be old.
