Tim Ferriss | Author, Entrepreneur, and Investor | $100 Million
Tim Ferris’ success is a living testament of what a person can do, especially when they commit themselves to the goal they wish to achieve. After receiving his degree from Princeton University back in 2000, Tim found himself a job at a data storage company. Soon after, a year, to be precise, he founded BrainQuicken. This startup soon became quite a success for Tim, so much so that he was able to sell it with a multi-million price tag by 2010.
Through the years, Tim also spent some time helping other businesses achieve a similar level of success. In fact, he acted as an angel investor for other startups, including Lyft, TaskRabbit, Evernote, and StumbleUpon. After a while, however, he shifted his attention to other business ventures. Tim has written several books along the way, including The 4-Hour Workweek, Tools of Titans, and Tribe of Mentors. He’s also found success as podcaster thanks to The Tim Ferriss Show.
