About this deal

corruption is wide spread and almost anyone is buyable or has a pressure point (one of the reasons you need good intel)

dont do that sort of job longer than 6 jears. it highly lowers the chance of you ending up in jail or get found dead in some shitty ass appartement somewhere in bangkok;) keep in mind not to do too many contracts in the same area or even country. guess i dont need to tell you that..but its the reason most ppl get cought. The author's depiction of the 'hits' are flat-out hilarious and nonsensical that I laughed out loud multiple times during the setups. Pretty much 80% of the hits follow this formula:Loved it! Its strange. At times I thought this couldn't be real. This is supposed to be a true account of a hitman. Then I thought well actually it does seem plausible the "accidental" deaths and to a degree it's justified serial killing. The author found a crime to fit his needs and that was killing. Its simular to how Dexter kills people who kill. Taking out societies trash. Righting wrongs through elimination. Then finding a job that works. Its simular to how serial killers find a job to facilitate their killings. Albeit Ted Bundy, travelling sales man to fulfill his need to murder women from state to state. Contract killingis a form of murder, in which one party hires another party to kill a target individual or group of people. It involves an illegal agreementbetween two parties in which one party agrees to kill the target in exchange for consideration, monetary, or otherwise. The hiring party may be a single person, a group of people, a company, or any other kind of organization. The hired party may also be one person, such as a hitman, or a group of people, or an organization. [1]“ So when you search ” How to be a hitman”” How much do hitmen get paid? ”” Will I get caught if I’m a hitman” or anything related to it, here’s the good part for you. Actually, there is no good part. You get flagged, get investigated, may be sent to Jail. you probably wont be able to spend all that hard earned money anytime soon. no high life for you since you need to keep a low profile. However, if you read this like a fiction, it’s not too bad. It’s not grisly and graphic and recounts with an eerily detached nature about some of the hits carried out by the protagonist, his childhood, and his ongoing problems with his wife, who plays a key role in the story.

I was intrigued though, right from the get go. The title drew me in and I needed to satisfy the morbid curiosity of this hidden world. It was an entertaining book, and interesting to listen to, but weirdly didn’t hit the mark (no pun intended) as much as I thought it would. I still enjoyed it, and I’m glad I listened to it (I had the audiobook) but I can’t quite put my finger on it! Let’s just point out right away that becoming a hitman is a bad idea. Killing people is bad, killing people for money is worse. So there. Here’re the why and why not’s. Having created the killer persona, Gary soon finds himself becoming more and more immersed in Ron, adding further, chameleon-like layers of disguise and character traits to mirror whoever is about to be stung. However, things become really complicated (in true film noir style) when "Ron" is approached by a femme fatale, Maddy (beautifully played by Adria Ajrona who also adds a delightfully a kooky sexy edge as well as a tender vulnerability). As the sparks between the two begin to fly during a hilarious but flirty exchange, Gary, who is clearly enjoying himself as Ron, finds himself conflicted. Dare he. As Ron, continue with the sting and have Maddy arrested for plotting to murder her husband? Has the flirtatious exchange caused Maddy to betray some regrets about what she is doing? The chemistry between Powell and Arjona is a pleasure to witness. Both actors bring out the best in one another and it is thrilling. The title itself really intrigued me so I decided to give it a read for myself, and wasn't entirely disappointed. The premise of the book is essentially about the author and his past. Spoiler: He killed people for a living.You see, unintelligent individuals, much like yourselves, think that it’s cool in some way or another to act like you’re “Killers’. You want to become a successful hitman, just look at Jason Bourne. Seriously. A person like that goes into every single situation knowing exactly what they are going to do to maintain their cover, because at all times during the contract (particularly right after the kill), confidentiality takes top priority.

The fact that the hitmen exist begets the fact that you can become one as well. There’s not much info on this, however, but a good place to start is actually with the FBI. They handle (2009 figures) 70 – 90 cases of attempted hirings for murder each year, and going through those should teach you a little about what not to doat least. There are things that don’t tally with UK reality - sneaking into morgues and extended stays in custody because they can’t find a magistrate etc. Things that might have been true in the 60s, 70s, or 80s but not much later. However, many of these things are explainable by the deliberate misrepresentation of time and locale to avoid identification. Which, you know, if he did off all these people at the behest of variously powerful people, then yeah I can see swapping an American life for a British one and the 70s for the 90s. So there you go – a short how-to in how to calculate your price for the hit, or the kill, or the contract.It's a bit of a 'light' read (although the subject matter isn't!), and probably the shortest book I've read for some time.

Reliable statistics on murder-for-hire fees are hard to come by, since most successful contract killers presumably go unpunished and are careful not to leave a paper trail. But fees can depend on a number of factors: the difficulty of the hit, the prominence of the target, the financial standing of the employer, and the financial needs of the hit man, to name just a few.” Action and Adventure. Surprisingly often, crimes are committed with this as the main motivation. Contract killings would probably be exciting for the right person, but the right person is probably a psychopath, and so would have trouble feeling that excitement anyway, and so the point kind of disappears right there. If you’re nota psycho, then you probably won’t want to be a contract killer anyway. Killing a target is harder than it looks, you have to observe them everyday know their life inside and out. You get to know your mark their likes, dislikes, favorite song which way they drive home what they eat. Its intimate and dangerous. I like to think there are two types of mercs, the good and the great.So I just recently finished a book titled, I Am A Hitman: The Real-Life Confessions of a Contract Killer. A fun and easy read. The main character is interesting not only because of his life's story but because of his deep introspective nature and attention to details, which helps to paint a vivid image. Being from Brazil myself, this character’s ties there and his short time spent in Brazil seemed very genuine and kept me reading. His early years are well explored, but not to the point of overkill.
