Jeffrey Holst, a 45-year-old Chattanooga real estate investor, has a modest goal for himself: He would like to be known as the most interesting man in the world.
That’s it. Nothing fancy.
As strange as it sounds, Holst has a running start on the title.
A world traveler, Holst has visited all seven continents, all 50 states and has a goal of visiting 50 countries by age 50. (He has banked 45 countries visited so far.)
He is a leukemia survivor who once thought he might have only a couple of months to live, yet he’s still thriving 15 years later.
