The author has been stunningly wrong for most of their life.

Not saying there's no point in reading it, just saying the author does not have a history of predicting the future.

If I wrote a book every day predicting the stock market will crash, I wouldn’t have been wrong every day.

That’s what this guy essentially does. He writes fan fiction for a certain type of person and sells his future bets at certain moments where they look the most plausible.

He’s a bad faith shuckster
