I watched some of his videos where he went through his setup for finding investment opportunities. It was very informative and it resonated with me since his approach definitely falls under the umbrella of value investing. He did get very lucky with the way Gamestop played out for him but overall I think he is a person deserving of his luck and he did his work beforehand. This is not some crazy NFT opportunist, he seems like a decent guy and he even has a CFA so he put in the hours in that as well. There was luck involved but also skill and hard work.

I've seen some comments comparing the recent r/antiwork mod on Fox fiasco to how well spoken and prepared DFV was defending himself in front of congress. The guy knew his stuff and it puts into perspective how bad things could have turned had he not known how to handle his sudden media presence.

  Wouldn't he still be very rich?

    I think the implication is the stock would have bottomed out after a disastrous interview.

CFA III or just took the CFA?

Yeah I think this gets lost in this conversation. When you watch his earlier videos it was very clear that he was incredibly sharp. I'm sure even he was dumbfounded at how this all played out but he wasn't some idiot running around trying to low effort pump and dump on forums. He had an extensive portfolio which was incredibly well researched, Gamestop just happened to be one of his higher conviction positions.
