And now the eighth and final Employment Tip from our book excerpt in Penthouse:
Here are not only some real-world employment tips, but also ways that the modern con man lifestyle can come in handy after you've punched out.
House Painter:
"No matter how much I might be asking around for work, if I'm ever asked how I land clients, I always lie and claim it's from referrals and word of mouth. 'I honestly don't know how to get new clients. The work's been coming to me for the past few years. I'm kinda embarrassed to say it, but I hardly have to work to get work.' It gets them every time."
Tip to the Modern Con Man:
"The cliché is true, even socially. If you act like you don't need it or want it, people are quicker to give it to you."
The March issue of Penthouse is currently on newsstands.

Who is Todd Robbins?
In addition to being America's #1 Con Man, Todd Robbins has a long list of other accomplishments ... a goodly number of them legal. You may have seen him on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, The Late Show with David Letterman, or Late Night with Conan O'Brien. But it's just as likely you've never heard of him - because Todd is a well-known authority and practitioner of all things deceptive.
Todd also uses his skills in more offbeat ways. He was one of the more successful participants in an underground experiment known as The Urban Survival Project. Individuals were dropped off in major cities without a dime in their pocket and left to live by their wits for a week. At the end of the seven days, Todd had not missed a single meal, was living in a nice hotel and had almost five hundred dollars on his person.
Additional praise for Todd Robbins includes "A legend!" (New York Post), "The Flim-Flam Maestro" (New York Magazine) and "The Master of Old-World Deception" (New York Newsday).
