1. Tell us about yourself
Well, I’m a 40-year-old man who’s living life with the spirit of a perpetual 20-year-old. I’ve got two amazing kids and a vibrant “yummy mommy” by my side who’s my constant source of inspiration. Elena Eghtesadi I love you. I genuinely love people, and my approach to work is far from conventional. I prefer to create multiple income streams rather than being tied to a traditional job. And let’s not forget, any business venture I undertake must be manageable from afar – it’s all about flexibility.
2. Do you see yourself as a qualified person who can give advice to people in business?
Absolutely, no doubt about it. I studied economics at university, and interestingly, my last name translates to ‘economical.’ Over the years, I’ve held the CEO position in more than 20 companies, and I’ve faced many failures which is the strongest part of me. You know what they say, failure is the best teacher. I’ve built each of these businesses from scratch, and that hands-on experience has been incredibly enriching.
3. Describe success in one sentence
To me, success is having the freedom to choose between the comfort of home or the allure of the beach, every single day. It’s about living life on my terms.
4. Why do you think people need your advice?
Well, let’s face it – there’s a saturation of mindless entertainment out there. People are glued to content that hardly adds value to their lives. I wanted to do something different. So, I decided to blend comedy, oddity, honesty, and practical advice all into one. It sounded challenging, and it definitely was, but I truly believe that the future belongs to those who can make learning enjoyable. After all, who wouldn’t want to laugh and learn at the same time?
5. If your advice is effective in business, wouldn’t it be better to get paid for it?
Here’s what I believe: when you create something exceptional, money naturally follows. Sure, I earn from some of my podcasts where advertisers like realtors, immigration lawyers, and product producers come on board. And I’m also getting paid for my expertise through hourly consultations and from Ads on YouTube from Google Inc as well. But my focus isn’t solely on monetary gains. I’m driven to create content that truly benefits people. I’m curious to see where this journey takes me, especially with the community that’s grown around my online presence. In just a year on YouTube, the possibilities for the next five years are exciting, and I’m genuinely grateful for all my online friends who have joined me on this adventure.
