All this talk about luck started to make me think, how true is that? I went back through the bio write up I did from his Linkedin and his first real company was Shout Interactive. It got started in 1996 and he sold it in February of 2000 to the alleged tune of $29 million dollars. That end date I have no realized is super important and absolutely key. The reason is that the dot-com bubble burst just a few months later.Jim happened to get lucky and proceeded to conflate his lucky with ability.
Luck rarely lasts though and now he just feels that he has been cheated and is being owed something.
For those who may not know, please allow me to poorly explain a very big event that effected a lot of people or you can watch this in under 10 minutes.
In the late 90's, the Internet was this completely new thing that was making some real big waves. The connectivity it brought was something that people hadn't seen since the invention telephone and now you could send pictures and all kinds of stuff. It was big and a LOT of people knew it and saw the value of it. I wanna stress that point because Jim talks as if is some kind of soothsayer or prophet in recognizing the significance of the Internet when soooooooooooooooooo many people did that it created a financial bubble. There were sites for anything and everything which sounds really stupid to say now but what if I told you that your site talking about raccoon massaging could get capital investment?
All you had to do was throw "dot.com" at the end of your company name and you would find investors. There was such a fervor to try to get into the next big thing that people were over funding and over inflating and over investing in every dumbass website that they could.

A combination of all these companies that had no real value, people leaving their jobs and trades to become day traders, hiking of interest rates by Allan Greenspan, economic downturn overseas, and many other straws that broke the dot-com boom's back. This killed a lot of companies that probably shouldn't have existed in the first place and was the start of a recession

The absolute peak is in March of 2000, right around when Jim sold Shout to someone for $29,000,000. Luck does not even begin to describe it. This helps explains why he has never gone back into web stuff and has been fixated on VR nonsense.
He's typical "identifies as Jewish" type scum, calling himself a Jew because he thinks this will give him some kind of rights that he can use as weapons against others.
Has he used the "I'm not white, I'm Jewish" line?
Pretty much what @JustStopDude said. I've never seen him try to flex being a Jew, because he's not by either practice or by Jewish standards as his mom is Scotch-Irish. He has only used his Glassman grandparents as a way to prove his, I don't know what best to call it, his expertise in recognizing fascism and to explain why he's not really anti-Semetic despite doing some serious Jew hating against Rothschild and being denounced by the ADL.They only time that Jim claims a tenuous relationship with a distant Jewish family member is when he is really drunk and about to spam out a bunch of antisemitic shit and he is slightly worried his trolls will point it out or his paypigs might get offended. And the family member he claims was Jewish keeps changing. He used to claim it was a grandmother.
He doesn't even know the first thing about Judaism. Like his father being Jewish wouldn't matter. Judaism tracks it through the maternal lineage.
Pages of just nonsense. Take this one, for example, where he goes after our own suicide troll, certified Eric Prince trained cyberbully bigot @Doug S !

That's some dastardly praise from @Doug S by saying...don't take meme's seriously or get into fights with strangers. Absolutely dastardly!
EDIT:
STOP THE FUCKING PRESSES!
I went back through the archives of Shout stuff and I realized that I had never looked up other stuff done or attributed by Shout.

The animation is about just above Beast Wars quality and maybe on par with Reboot. I am super excited to show off this. It's not because of the animation. It's because of the "story".
Even back in 2000 Jim was obsessed with cults, brain washing, and deprogramming. Think about it for a second. You don't need any of this to show off the versatility of your facial animation software. You don't need some bizarre story about two shadows debating on whether to kill...Jimmy...fuck me running. I didn't even realize that Jim named the tied up member of the cult who stole the secrets of the cult to expose the cult and who's life is on the line and is ultimately killed by cult member who betrayed him Jimmy until I wrote that last sentence. That is so fucking profound that I am actually staggered.
