Still aren't following me on Twitter? What are you waiting for?
I found this on another blog which you might also like: Get Rich Slowly.
Please watch this if you haven’t already seen it. It might change your life.
Randy died last Friday, July 25th 2008. This was his last lecture.
This is for all my friends and family.
Wow, that was the most boring thing I’ve ever tried to watch. I think I stopped at the virtual reality bunnies. I’d bet the majority of his audience was a fan of his before attending that lecture, because if a friend of mine had dragged me to this, I would have had sex with his sister as payback.
Maybe you could have prefaced this video by telling us what this guy is about? I made it 45 minutes through and i still couldn’t tell. Too bad because it seems like he is an important figure in your life.
Thanks for your comment.
I was surprised to find similar opinions in the discussion @ Get Rich Slowly. There were several others who felt it was extremely boring also. Maybe it was the glass of wine I had while watching it, but I had no problem getting sucked in.
As far as background information, I didn’t think a preface was really needed as I never had one. He described his situation in the beginning of the video - pancreatic cancer was going to kill him within a year. Beyond that, I thought it was fairly clear that he was a professor and this was a lecture. But you’re right, a little background info never hurts.
In my opinion, I don’t think you need to be a friend of Randy to appreciate the video. Over 10 million people have seen this video and they weren’t all friends of his. I think this man really touched a lot of people.
Glad I don’t have a sister…
