Shapps is not the only one who would go through the wrong door to avoid Michael Crick.
Buy the book, Michael. Actually, some guy called Michael Green authored this 'self-help' guide. Not Grant - although he is a live wire.
OK, so Grant Shapps read it and he's worth at lest 10 mil. Perfectly logical. But you still have to but the bible of success and get the facts from the horse's mouth. Strange though. Michael Green is also worth £10 million. Coincidence?
