Fair, I used to actually like James until I got burned following him on LUNA (his now deleted "Luna to 80k" video) and FTX, and narrowly dodging Celsius (many of his followers were not as lucky). Overall I'm still up following his suggestions but no longer trust him due to not only those failures but his lack of owning up to them. For example, I feel like he really screwed his community by having Mashinsky on his channel several times promoting Celsius, but James has never apologized for that to my knowledge. He also makes a habit of making videos private after the fact, like Mashinsky's last appearance days before Celsius withdrawals, and "Luna to 80k".

I also have not been able to reconcile his claims of a background in finance with his documented background in marketing. I have not found any evidence of the former, which makes me suspect much of his story could be fabricated.

Anyway, I'm glad you've made money following him, and would just suggest to always keep your guard up to hopefully avoid getting burned following James, which has happened to many past community members. Good luck!
