Today’s guest on Hack the Entrepreneur is one of host Jon Nastor’s all-time favorite writers, and Jon rarely goes more than a few months without rereading his book Choose Yourself.
He is a hedge fund manager, entrepreneur, bestselling author, blogger, and podcaster.
He has founded (or cofounded) more than 20 companies, and 17 have failed. He sold one for $15 million and spent all of the money — all of it. Then he built and sold another within its first year for $10 million.
He fails quickly. He fails frequently. He claims Entrepreneurship is a sentence of failures punctuated by brief success.
He is invested in 28 private companies. He advises nearly another 50 private companies — companies ranging from $0 in revenues to a billion in revenues.
This conversation is longer than usual, but you will not even notice, because not a second is wasted.
Now, let’s hack …
James Altucher.
In this 48-minute episode of Hack the Entrepreneur, host Jon Nastor and James Altucher discuss:
- How James improves his sound during a podcast
- Exactly how to make a living in six months, a great living within two years, and become rich within three to four years
- How success can be measured today or in decades
- The importance of always thinking about giving to others
- Why most ideas that people have are bad (and why that’s okay)
