Watched it and really did like it Druggie but can I make one teensy suggestion?

I think I can cause I believe you're the type who can take something someone says for what it is with the understanding that it is NOT criticism.

I don't want to watch words.

You're a nice looking guy and, to be honest, even if you weren't? I would rather see YOU and have you cut away to the pp's, etc.

"Running the most efficient race..."

I don't want to click on the link and immediately wonder if the text will continue to appear while you narrate.

Once it didn't I was waiting to see who was speaking.

Do you know what I'm saying?

I wouldn't begin with text cause it's a turn off.

I think you did a terrific job and this is something i would continue to view so please don't let your feelings be hurt and know that I want this to be a very successful venture!

Great job.

Great job.
Whether he is good looking or not, keep in mind that over 99% of all viewers for his videos will be male.

Also, his young age might lead people to not take him seriously, something he had expressed to me in the past.

Thirdly, mystery can be a good thing.

99% assumes that at least 100 people will be watching.

I would have bet on about 8 people -- with my girlfriend being my most loyal viewer.

I'm sure you will get a large following in less time than you expect. As long as you don't lose it, like you did with your Saratoga tout service (what was it called again? Woptrips, or something like that), you'll do fine.

If there are two things you can do in life, one would be to analyze horse racing like few people can.
