Ben Affleck, Helen Mirren and Other Stars Talk Failure and Secrets to Success Most superstars faced failure before achieving success.

By Matthew McCreary

Entrepreneur TV focuses on entrepreneurs, startups and stars who have created their own products or launched their own businesses. You'll learn success secrets from celebrities, productivity hacks from billionaires and more.

On the fifth episode of Entrepreneur TV, learn from stars like:

  • Ben Affleck
  • Helen Mirren
  • Jamie Oliver . . . and more!

Actor and director Ben Affleck explains why he focuses on the art, rather than the business, and how he trusts talented collaborators to keep his job simple. Helen Mirren talks about her father's death and the worst day of her career, and Ashton Kutcher, who founded the A-Grade Investments company in 2010 (now worth $250 million) breaks down why it's important to invest in what you know.

Plus, Chef Jamie Oliver gives Entrepreneur a knife lesson, and national radio host Dave Ramsey talks about failure.
