I had the honor of graduating from Air Assault school at the 101st Airborne Division with a  primary job of a light wheel mechanic.

I've been an entrepreneur for as long as I can remember. 

In 1989, my family and I escaped a war torn Iran to a refugee camp in Erlangen, Germany. That's when I got my first entrepreneur gig. I negotiated with the owner of a local swimming pool to get paid 10 Pfennig per beer bottle I brought back to the owner, as a way of cleaning up after people who were getting drunk by the pool. 

In my 20's, after honorably discharging from the US Army at the 101st Airborne division, I got into financial services with Morgan Stanley Dean Witter a day before 9/11. I went from a regular advisor to running a multi million dollar a year business by 2009 with Transamerica. That's when I decided to start a financial firm, marketing retirement and life insurance products to families. With our unique marketing approach, we've now grown from 66 agents out of one office in Northridge, California to over 12,000 agents in nearly 49 states. 

My passions are reading books, politics, philosophy and startup entrepreneurship. 

I'm the host of "Valuetainment", the #1 channel on youtube for Entrepreneurs with 1.7 million subscribers with a few billion minutes watched.  

I host a 3 day conference once a year called the VAULT where CEO's, Founders and Entrepreneurs from around the world come to identify their next 15 moves. If you haven't attended once, click on the link below to get more details about the event.

Every business is hard. 

The question is, can you stay locked in while everyone else chases the next shiny object.  

Being focused is a super power.

Gratitude improves everything.  

If everyday we took time to count our blessings, we’d live better lives.  

We have a lot to be thankful. 

Happy thanksgiving to you all.

One bad influence in your ear can destroy not only your life, but also the lives of those who depend on YOU.  

Be selective on who has influence over you.
