James Altucher is an American hedge fund manager, entrepreneur, bestselling author, venture capitalist and podcaster. He has founded or cofounded more than 20 companies. He has published 20 books, and he is a contributor to publications including The Financial Times and The Huffington Post.

Career

Altucher graduated from Cornell University with a bachelor's degree in computer science in 1989.[1][2] Altucher's first job after graduating was in the IT department of HBO. At one point, Altucher hosted an HBO program, III:am.[1]

In 1998, Altucher left HBO, sold Reset Inc. for approximately $10 million, and used the proceeds to fund new internet investments.[3] Altucher has said he began this period with $15 million and lost it all in two years, which led him to re-evaluate his approach to both business and life.[3] During this time, Jim Cramer of TheStreet.com hired him to write about stocks, and Altucher began trading for hedge funds.[1]

From 2002–2005, he traded for several hedge funds, and from 2004–2006, he ran a fund of hedge funds.[1]

In 2006, Altucher founded the financial social network StockPickr.[4] The website was named one of Time Magazines 50 Best Websites of 2007.[5] Stockpickr was later sold to TheStreet.com for $10 million according to an SEC filing from TSCM in April, 2007.{{Citation needed|date=December 2018}}

In 2017, he moved into advising on cryptocurrency investing,[6] despite having condemned Bitcoin in 2013 as "a fad, or a scam, or a ponzi scheme, or worse."[7] However, in May, 2013, he built a store to sell his book, "Choose Yourself" for Bitcoin a month before he released it on Amazon. He was interviewed by Business Insider about this and why he reversed his stance on Bitcoin.[8]

Altucher was a seed investor in Buddy Media, which later sold to Salesforce.com for $745 million.[1]

On August 31, 2015, Altucher launched a new podcast with Stephen Dubner, co-author of Freakonomics, called Question of the Day, based on questions from Quora.[9]

Dan Dzombak of The Motley Fool named Altucher's book Choose Yourself among the 12 Best Business Books of All Time.[10]

In 2016, the NY Times wrote a story titled, "Why Self-Help Guru, James Altucher, only owns 15 items." .[11]

Altucher hosts the business podcast called "The James Altucher Show.", which also covers investment strategy, entreupreneur opportunity examples, why technology doesn't displace jobs, hedge-fund businesses, and ETFs.[12][13]

McDonald's launched the "Where You Want To Be" employees mentoring campaign which included James Altucher as one of its influencers.[14]
