| About James |
I am a businessman, entrepreneur, investor, motivational speaker, consultant, artist and son of Susan and Tim White and brother of Jeff White. I am based out of Calgary, Alberta, Canada and have remote offices all over the world. Now 25, I started my first business at age 12 with the purchase of a $20 snow shovel, the money was earned by babysitting.
That snow shovel soon turned into hundreds of thousands of dollars of equipment, over 300 workers and J & W Lawn Care & Snow Removal turned into one of the largest landscaping businesses in Alberta.
By age 16, I was a millionaire. Despite my success, I still thirsted for more success and sold J & W to focus on new and different ventures. My interests in companies are diverse but they all have one thing in common: they are successful. I have been involved in companies spanning from long haul trucking, to marketing and finance. At age 22 I was primed to become one of the most successful young entrepreneurs on the planet but nearly lost it all thanks to a crooked CFO, who stole close to $1 Million dollars from my clients trust accounts, resulting in a documented $2.8 Million dollar loss for me as I had to pay it back.
2008 was tough for me, just as it was tough for all of us. Beyond the financial crisis that struck the world in October 2008 I had to deal with the betrayal of my CFO, bad business dealings with a former colleague and in July of 2008 at age 23, I suffered a heart attack in Beaumont, Texas while promoting my book and meeting with investors. I am sharing this story with you in my upcoming autobiography, Born to Be Business $avvy: 31 Essential Tips from the Kid Millionaire on a Personal Journey published by Morgan James Publishing and distributed by Ingram Books.
I am currently President & CEO of Eurotex Finanz Inc. and I am the youngest CEO of a company listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. We are listed under ticker KFE.
Most say I am prominent consultant and motivational speaker. I’m excited to be expanding my upcoming speaking tour, Business After Hours, to almost 100 cities in the United States. I will be sharing the secrets of my success. All attendees at my events will receive a $5,000 MLOC Marketing Line of Credit courtesy of Eurotex Finanz Inc.
Everyone asks me, what makes you tick? My response is… I continue to wake up every day and perform the daily grind and deal with issues; it’s a challenge. I want to help people. It’s a challenge to close the deal, it’s a challenge to find good people and it is a challenge dealing with the everyday business of contracts, meetings, agreeing, disagreeing – it’s all a challenge. But what I love, is the challenge of showing people that they too, can rise up to any obstacle in their life and do things they never believed they could. We, as people, love a challenge. My challenge is to do more. To help you achieve everything you feel possible, from raising cash to personal development. This is about you, not me. |
