Don,

I know this is a thread is a little old, but I just downloaded and listened.

Great presentation - really heartfelt too.  It's awesome to be able to access high quality resources like this for free.

Thanks for the hard work,
Justin

This will help me, i am in high school, and i am gonna be stepping into real world soon(few months).

I am interested in ethical hacking \ pentesting career.

Well Don, I listened to the mp3 in my car this evening, and I think it's a big thumbs up (if it's appropriate for me to say that, being a newbie and all)

What I noticed most is that you're quite a natural speaker, which greatly helps to get the message across.
Practical advice (like networking, but even more practical like, for example, the tip about a 6 months cash reserve), and the personal touch (concerning your grandfather), made that point even stronger.

Definitely to be recommended for everyone in a similar position as myself, at the (hopefully) start of a career in security.


Thanks for the effort, I'll be sure to keep this one on my hd.

Cheers.
