Felber’s winning advice:

Become omnipresent,” he said. “Can you imagine how much financial success you would have if you, your brand and your company could be known everywhere all the time?

Josh Felber’s 4 Biggest Accomplishments

Along with taking home this year’s title, Felber’s background positions him as an obvious master at his craft. Here are four little-known facts about the year’s biggest finance expert.

1. He’s Turned Passion Into Profit

As a tenured athletic competitor winning awards in various marathons, Felber has capitalized on his passion for fitness by opening and operating a number of health and fitness centers. His latest venture, Functional Fitness Labs, LLC, has proven successful by tapping into the CrossFit following.

2. He’s an Accomplished Author

Those eager to learn about Felber’s business savvy but unable to attend a seminar are in luck. The entrepreneur keeps his strategies accessible to the masses through several best-selling books he’s co-authored, including “SuccessOnomics” with Steve Forbes, which emphasizes the importance of risk-taking, perseverance and taking action to achieve wealth and success.

3. He’s a “Serial Entrepreneur”

At the young age of 14, Felber started dabbling in the business world and has since owned numerous businesses — some successful, some not so much — but he’s always embraced his failures and grown from them. Best of all, he’s sharing this wisdom through coaching and other speaking engagements.

4. He’s a Documentarian

From writing to operating a business and even producing films, Felber is a Jack of all trades when it comes to inspiring an audience. His documentary film projects include “The Rebound,” about a wheelchair basketball team, and new endeavor featuring the journey of Peter Diamandis, chairman and CEO of the XPRIZE Foundation
