    Roger,

    How many words per minute can you read? Is your comprehension good at that speed? Does this work for books that are complicated or technical? Has this skill been usefull to you?

    I haven't measured my reading speed in 10+ years... I read about three books a month and have great reading comprehension. I would worry less about how many words you can read and more about what you can learn.
