James Altucher is an entrepreneur, angel investor, author, and blogger. He is the author of the best-selling book: Choose Yourself: Be Happy, Make Millions, Live the Dream. He also hosts two successful podcasts:  "The James Altucher Show" & "Ask Altucher" show with his wife and co-host Claudia Azula Altucher.

James is an honest and open book with his writing. He speaks equally about falling on his face in business as much as he talks about winning and making a lot of money.  

In this episode of Stories from The Influencer Economy, we talk in depth about James views on business, giving, helping others, building relationships.  We also dive into the process of how James wrote Choose Yourself, and the principles of the book.

Ultimately James and his values fit into The Influencer Economy. It's an era where disruption is ripe in business and it's up to us as creative people to survive. If we want work, we have to make our own career. If we want a career we have to build the relationships with the right people. It's all on us.

James has also written for TechCrunch, the Wall Street Journal and his blog JamesAltucher.com has attracted more than 20 million readers since its launch
