3 of the Best Professors on Life: James Altucher, Anthony Robbins, Timothy Ferriss


Master of Finance & Believer Non-Traditional Ways of Educating and Succeeding

Claim to Fame: Stockpickr: a financial social network, Time Magazine’s 50 Best Websites of 2007, sold in 2007 for $10 million.

History: Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science at Cornell University, Doctoral candidate at Carnegie Mellon University
Influence: Being a master of finance gave Altucher much wisdom to share. He now shares with others how they can respond best given the current economic opportunities.

I came across him when I was on Amazon looking for a cheap business book. This book empowered me to step into the life I wanted to live mentally and practically. In his book Choose Yourself he describes how much the world has changed in relation to the market, jobs and industries.

He teaches you how to use the changing conditions to your advantage by choosing yourself instead of making yourself eligible to be chosen by others. He brings light to the opportunities we have available to achieve inward and outward success.

Expert Communicator & Life Changer

History: Promoted seminars for Jim Rohnneuro-linguistic programming, Personal Power series of self-help audios.

Influence: Powerful, life-altering topics on overcoming your fears, enhancing relationships, persuasive communicating, health, wealth and energy.

I was introduced to Robbins through a friend who was going through his training to be a life coach. I’m sure many people have heard of him-maybe not as much if you are around my age. That is exactly why even watching one of his videos will blow your mind.

His experience in neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) is the science that backs up his methods of training. He has transformed people’s lives in minutes and lives a life worthy of emulating. I would say his training and words and definitely worth the reading and listening.

Influence: More productivity in the least amount of time giving you the freedom to live the life you want.


Another friend introduced me to Tim Ferris and his approach on quality living: less work, more productivity, and massive amounts of freedom. I learned how to increase productivity and lessen wasted time to achieve the life I want. He begins in 4 Hour Work Week talking about the lifestyle I have always thought was possible: freedom from a workplace, ability to go wherever whenever and doing in the least amount of time necessary.

He teaches you how to turn your dreams into achievable goals and live the life you really dream of. If this sounds like something you desire and think of as impossible, it’s time to think again.
