- RISKING IT ALL FOR THE BIG WIN: AARON ARNOLD
Arnold, 31, gave his all to start his dream venture, leaving a high-paying job as a public relations executive to start Music Is My Business, an Atlanta-based music company with a client list that includes ESPN, Heineken, and the United Nations’ World Food Program (WFP).
