So you want to be a Voiceover Star?

I am re-reading the most fascinating and important work about success in any given field that I have ever come across. It is "Outliers" by Malcolm Gladwell published by Little, Brown & Co. Not once are the words "Voice Over" ever mentioned, nor I'm sure did the term ever enter Mr. Gladwell's mind. But in re-reading the book, I realized no greater pitch for my homestudy course could possibly be written by the greatest writer in the world because of the heart of his book. Without getting in too deeply, because you must get this book, you need to put in 10,000 hours of preparation in your chosen field to attain star status. WOW! 10,000 hours...who could possibly afford to pay for 10,000 hours worth of lessons?- Bill Gates maybe (He's in the book) Let's see now, my home study course sells for $649 divided by 10,000 hours - you do the math - Thank you Malcolm Gladwell.

10,000hours wow, wonder where his research is from. Not doing to bad Don for $0.0649 on the home study per hour.
