After selling his company for 15 million, living like a rock star and then pissing it away as fast as one can imagine, our next guest hit rock bottom and was contemplating suicide.  He&#039;s turned it all around now and his journey is as inspirational as they come.

This is one of the many stories you&#039;ll hear in this episode on The School of Greatness.  Even though this might sound like a dream to many of you out there, this interview makes it clear that money is not the key to happiness.

<p>What does it take to achieve your biggest dreams?</p>
<p>For Ben Nemtin and three of his Canadian friends, it was a willingness to announce their dreams to the world, take massive action, and help others along the way.</p>

<p>But why do so many get stuck in living &#8220;average&#8221; lives and never go after what they want?</p>
<p>In episode #16 I bring on Ben, star of the MTV show <em>The Buried Life, </em>as he unlocks the key on how to turn any dream into a reality.</p>
