Meet James Wrigley, Financial Advisor and Finfluencer

What happens when a financial advisor goes viral? James Wrigley has amassed over 220,000 followers across social media platforms with his refreshingly authentic approach to financial advice, reaching millions of people worldwide with every post. But his success story begins far from the spotlight.

Now, James is a principal advisor helping clients navigate the complex relationship between money and life satisfaction. His most powerful insight? Financial advice isn't just about numbers—it's about helping people understand what they truly want from life.

For those interested in financial advising careers, James offers practical wisdom: "The hardest job to get is the first one." He encourages saying yes to opportunities, even when they seem daunting. His own social media success came from abandoning polished, corporate content in favour of authentic videos often recorded while walking to the gym or working in his garden. These raw, unfiltered moments connect most powerfully with his audience.
