>On top of being an agent and promoter, he also runs his own healthy energy sports drink company
>and a fast food chain that only sells healthy food in Russia.
Actually:
1. He has already sold his healthy energy sports drink company
2. He has a restaurant ("Flying Dutch", the same where July's M-1 event was)
3. He has a big center (for RedDevil team to train, etc)
4. His main business actually has to do with meat. He is importing it from Holland. That's where he gets all the revenue to start new businesses and not to worry about losing money.

>A page out of the health food surge from the United States.
What do you mean by that? I didn't understand it.

1. Yes, he has sold the sports drink company.
2. Restaurant? Yeah, I wasn't trying to mention everything he had, just trying to get the point down that he is a businessman.
3. Yes, I didn't mention this because everyone knows he's in the promotion and venue management business anyways.
4. Meat importing is where he started, yes. This is all mentioned in his profile at M-1 Global.com.

In the United States, the healthy food dieting plans and surge in health food are the rage. More healthier food eateries are opening up. In essence, Finkelstein was using that type of idea.
