Dear Tim Sykes -
Fist yourself.
Signed
The World
haha.
but fisting is kind of dangerous
@2
hahahah
you said butt fisting.
*Guy From Del picks up the phone*
what number am I?
first
Bess – you complain about the Mayo and Sham-wow jerk-offs (rightly so) but you keep posting links to that ass clown Sykes. What gives?
Respectfully submitted,
Double Standard Guy who has posted more than his fair share of “what are the Associate numbers?” in July and August.
it’s obvious tah-tah-tah-timmmayy is paying for placement.
given DBs full advertisement fee is too much for the wannabe maestro of penny stock manipulation, he pays a discounted rate for JC to link to his worthless blog 2 or 3 times a week.
Too linky, didn’t click.
ha i don’t pay and i never will…they just recognize a good blog when they see one…u plebs forget, my blog made $70k last month:

Tim,
you’re a stupid ass fucker, nobody here wants to read your shit about being a bar mitzva stock trader, then a world class publisher, then a traveler around the world on $1 per day in a hot air balloon. somehow you convinced Bess to link to your lame ass bitch of asite. good for you. that seems to be your only accomplishment so far in life. No, Trader under 30 doesn’t count. No picking illiquid penny stocks doesn’t count either. you embarrass yourself ever single time you write, and Bess embarrasses herself everytime she links to you and thinks your some whiz finance kid. pleas give it up. try pitching to some 3rd world country. for gods sake we fuckin had enough of your lame ass shit postings defending yourself and your projected money making skills if only the market turned up instead of down.
sorry every one else for my rant.
I’m a Dude
BTW go ahead bess, trace my IP. i could give a rats ass.
@11– don’t flatter yourself, Dude. she doesn’t give a rat’s ass about you, and certainly doesn’t give a rat’s ass about you saying you hate tim.
@ Dude/morons like Dude– has bess or carney ever written a sincere thing about sykes? the answer is no. if anything they rip into him (search the archives if you don’t believe me). he is a clown that they are amused by poking. the fact that you let him get to you every single time they link to him in write-offs (write-offs, a totally meaningless feature) speaks more about you than it does tim/DB.
they are neutral on him. they never poke fun. they do think he is a stock trading whiz kid. they have no idea that his 20k paper profit he made this year isnt even a drop in the bucket for any hedge fund or trading desk. he’s a wanker and DB gives him a modicum of validity by linking him.
@11
i’m sure you know whats going on in her mind
Heres a good one to replace tims
http://tfpoi.com/2008/09/10/the-edge-version-of-the-iphone-could-be-a-better-product/
@dude– i’m not the one who claimed to be, you were, remember, psycho? “they do think he is a stock trading whiz kid.”
@16 thanks.
maybe when bess and carney wake up from their drunken stupor they will considor replacing sykes.
BTW, where is Timmy with his witty responses on how much paper profit he may have made on his hump and dump stocks? doesnt he trade asia?
@dude-tim sykes is way too insignificant to give a shit about, and the fact that you have your panties in a bunch over dealbreaker linking to him in write-offs seems to imply that you seriously need to get a life.
i dont give a shit about sykes, just trying to steer Bess right. she’s a good kid, needs guidance, not Timmy taking advantage of her telling her to link – he’s a financial whiz kid, you need to link to my Timmay site etc.

Mistaking your perceived skill set with luck that isn’t captured in one or two standard deviations is nothing to brag about.
I’m going to enjoy reading your story on DB in a few years when your sentenced to 10-years in Federal pound me in the ass prison.
SPODE
SPODE, lets send him a car package in prison, maybe some prep H
#9 Peanut butter or jelly for your care package? Or would you prefer to eat ass raw without a condomint?
lets wait for sykes retort on how he made so much money in paper profit last month he was able to take a vacation to jamaica queens and if we only read his book (only $16.99 at amazon, hurry going fast) we would have made that kind of money too and be able to have bess levin lookalikes bring us drinks with little umbrellas in them for us to sip at the pool.
DB links to Timmah because he gets the commenters riled up. More comments = more page views = more cash money for DB.
TS is compelling evidence that money does not buy taste. Seriously, what a D-bag. Truly a charmless man. Were I his dog I would seek out the nearest moving vehicle and hurl myself in front of it. Failing that, I’d drink everything under the sink till death’s sweet embrace.
I wonder if he has pain of the existential variety: awake in bed thinking about how much of a D-bag he is, and how he wishes he could be a better person. I hope, for his sake, that this introspection occurs.
TS, you aren’t a rich man, you are a poor man who has money. Show a little self-respect and stop being a Jack@ss. Your mom must be so ashamed.
LOL plebs, keep it up! fact is my blog income has gone from $15k in may to $25k in june, $45k in july, $70k in aug…on track to beat nicely in sept….i dont care what u think of me–if i havent made that clear by now, i apologize–point is i know how to profit from penny stock inefficiencies….all perfectly legal and liquid….thats why dozens of my students are now at the top of Covestor, which verifies all trades, right alongside me…i agree its sad that i’m still #1, but when u have an industry as sad as this one, nothing is very surprsig after a while
Maybe, by some fortuitous act of [insert major or minor deity], the comments could magically break again?
“$15k in may to $25k in june, $45k in july, $70k in aug”
In your dreams.
Unfortunately, it’s not illegal to lie about your blog revenues.
Dude
“they have no idea that his 20k paper profit he made this year isnt even a drop in the bucket for any hedge fund or trading desk.”
Please tell me you don’t think Carney and Levin don’t know what funds and desks make every day. I mean, you’ve read this site before, right?
The only reason they link to Timmay is because it’s funny watching how retarded he is. If you don’t like it, don’t look. I laugh my ass off at every one of his posts, mostly because he’s at the top of his earnings potential right now and he still isn’t beating the guys one level above me. You, me and the rest of the readers here still have years of promotions, raises and fat bonus checks to come – Timmay’s got nowhere to go but down and no skills to leverage to get out of it. In 30 years, when you and I are fighting to see whose G30 gets to take off first so we can take the trophy wives to Aruba for the weekend, Timmay will still be sitting at home on his computer trading penny stocks and selling his ideas to the people desperate enough to listen to them.
@7:52am Fortunately for me, I don’t post phony income stuff, so soon I’m gonna begin posting my tax forms too just to make sure I’m the most tranparent motherfucker out there…and of course I look forward to the truth pissing you cubicle monkeys offf who don’t understand that my biz is all about brutal honesty….aka it wouldnt matter if my blog was only making $467/month, I’d still detail it
Yeah seriously, Sykes you are an idiot. I don’t believe for a second you make any money shorting these garbage stocks, not for a second. Where do you get your locates from, jerkoffs are us?? The finance world doesnt give two squirts of piss for you or your bar mitzvah money. Send your mom over to my apt to clean, ill give her a nice long return if you know what im sayin. You probably dont though because you are a total jerkoff.
@8:21pm LOL top of my earnings? Please, friggin frauds make millions “teaching others to trade”, the real thing means tens of millions….easy
@8:25Pm u sir are a moron, all my trades are verified by Covestor, where I’m #1. don’t believe i, and others, make $ shorting garbage stocks, good, more $ for us. god i love the ignorance on wall street, it inspires me! FYI if u’re not making decent/big $, u’re one of the suckers…damn it feels good to be nearly doubling my income every month, somehow i dont think any of u are doing that, especially those at lehman, suckas
“Blogosphere Beats MSM to the Lehman Bros”
Well done DB… Well done.
Tim.. you remain a douche
PS finding locates isnt as hard as u’d think…but u assumption making-research-lacking motherfuckers dont understnd that. here’s freebie:
http://www.thinkorswim.com/tos/client/index.jsp?srcCode=0907_02
i’ve even included my affiliate code so u can contribute to m blogging income!
@dude– have you ever read this site? they bess and carney write about little HFs like SAC, tudor, rentec, citadel and so on and so forth. they know that 20k/year isn’t shit. you are a moron.
Tim, we all know what happens when you try to trade anything bigger than pennies (RIP Cilantro). Unless blogging turns into a multi-million dollar venture, I really doubt you’ve got much more growing to do, let alone growing on the order of magnitude that the rest of us “cubicle monkeys” will be doing.
Cilantro Fund, that was the best. What was that Tim, you didnt lose all of your money you just got into a position that was so illiquid it made concrete look like Poland Spring?? We’re the morons huh? You are a fraud, and when you go belly up, which should be any day now, it’s going to be a great day for us all. Even that retarded blond chick on WSW wouldnt give you a dime, you are a joke. I bet you didnt get any play from that hot blond at the sushi joint that night either, and you picked up the tab with whatever small amount of cash you had left in your checking account you piker.
@39
First amusing post in the thread – congrats!
MoN
Guys, enough with Tim Sykes… more important things going on… like Lehman at $4 ahead of the open
John Francis Carney III
TLDR
I’m starting to feel sorry for Tim. His actual trading rev was 1800-n’change last month, less a 15% cap gains tax, if he can even get out of the position where marked. Look Tim, if you wanna trade garbage, fine, but please don’t act like you have a clue as to how the rest of us do it.
leh down $2.70 on opening trades
Why is MER down so much more than everyone else?
Jimmy Cayne must house 10 mcgriddles in 1 hour in order for Lehman to survive.
no so sure the issue for LEH, MER et al is survival. Market is also coming to realize that there are fundamental changes in the business that will reduce profitability significantly going forward. No way these firms are going to be able to gear their balance sheets like they used to. Cost cuts only make up for a little of that. This is not gonna be as fun as it used to be.
Didnt a plane crash into Sykes’ apartment a few months back? Even god hates Sykes. Sykes is long douchbagness, short brains. While everyone was getting laid in college he was shorting penny stocks. Yay!!!!!!
