James Booth belongs in a class of his own; the younger brother of domain investor, Andy Booth, enjoys stepping out of his comfort zone often.

​

The young Briton emigrated to southeast Asia to seek new challenging opportunities. Four years ago, at the young age of 22, he moved to Singapore to work in the financial sector. Currently based in Manila, Philippines, James Booth enjoys both the extended benefits of living in a multi-cultural, pro-western country, and its challenges. James has achieved several milestones in his career as a domain broker, and this is an opportunity to learn more from him directly.
