I ignored your warning and tried to watch it. After about a minute and a half of non-sequitur platitudes, I couldn't take it anymore!

Edit: It's fascinating like a train wreck. Imagine using this as the script for a scene where someone is on the phone with their dad, who is in a room with a bomb that will detonate exactly 3 minutes and 6 seconds from now (but we compress it to 2 minutes because the actor will be saying the lines very fast) and the dad hurriedly and tearfully tries to deliver all the advice he can cram in. As he remembers things to say in pretty much random order, he blurts them out.

I guess it is like the nigerian posts full of grammar errors, they are designed to filter all but the most stupid marks.
By skipping the second half, you missed the push of "I've been on Oprah, therefore this company will be successful". Seriously, the last 20 seconds before the logo reveal starts is footage of him on Oprah.
