Description

Years ago, a young man named Mark Zuckerberg was asked this question by his father: Would you choose to take a McDonald's Franchise (that I would purchase for you), or go to Harvard University for the degree of your choosing? And of course, we all know what he chose and what happened next, but it's an interesting question.

In this episode, I asked Jay Yow The Engineer, and my wife, Robyn, the same question. Listen to the episode, and see what were their choices, and how would they take it from there (whatever their choices are)?

James Altucher interviews the world’s leading peak performers in every area of life. But instead of giving you the typical success story, James digs deeper to find the “Choose Yourself” story—these are the moments we relate to… when someone rises up from personal struggle to reinvent themselves. The James Altucher Show brings you into the lives of peak-performers: billionaires, best-selling authors, rappers, astronauts, athletes, comedians, actors, and the world champions in every field, all who forged their own paths, found financial freedom and harnessed the power to create more meaningful and fulfilling lives.
