He didn’t do it all himself of course. Big ups to the ShiLa Capital Management team, handpicked by the thespian from their posts at the Encino Charles Schwab office, Citi and John Thomas Financial.

i hate him so much
mmmmdouche bag.
uh, and what about all we did for you, dickshine? oh how you forget so quickly.
-LB
I could have turned it into $4.8 mil, easy.
-Cody
I think you might have accidentally misspelled “Thespian”. They way you spelled it with a “b” makes it sort of look like “lesbian,” which would obviously be incorrect since Shia is male.
-AIG Humor Analyst
not impressed.
-twizzlers boy
uh, is he joking about the insider trading thing?
where are his gucci loafers?
For a reasonable fee, I would certainly piss in his ass.
-Ping
Its all pump and dump. with clients.
Once you get the money, you collect the fees and
work = 0
pay = Excellent.
Stop pretending to work 100 hours a week. We all know its bull. Those that do don’t make as much :)
@10 uh…who are you addressing here? shia? hf managers?
Does anyone have first year Decepticon numbers?
tax him
HES AN ACTOR. What do you ecxpect him to know. Id switch places with him in a second, he makes millions to play pretend, has Megan Fox on speed dial and spends his days boozing and picking up low hanging fruit. All the suden hes expected to know about trading/finance cause hes in some Oliver Stone trainwreck. Although, Im sure he knows more than Volsmile.
@14 we don’t expect him to know shit. that’s why it chafes just a bit when he claims in every single interview that he’s a trading guru, knows what it takes to get hired at goldman sachs and so on and so forth. but bravo for not getting it. idiot.
Wait until Volker finds out about this. Warner Brothers and 20th Century Fox’s prop desks are gonna be FUCKED.
If you didn’t know how to short and went long on ANYTHING all of last year, you’d have made money. Being lucky >>>> being smart.
@17 False. Ask those that were long XOM all 2009.
My point is D-bag at 15 that you shouldnt be listening to him PERIOD. Hes aobviously a moron. Thanks for playing, back in your cubicle
“say your coming out of a top business school like Fordham” . . . Huh?
I conduct all my private illegal insider trading activity via Twitter as well. That way, every teenage Ashton Kutcher fan knows exactly what my positions are going to be. Brick phones are so 2000-and-late.
He was training at Schottenfeld, this is a fact. There is even a scene in the new wall street movie that was filmed there.
dbags like this are the reason why I left W Street.
A Mozilo.
@19 master leaving a single comment with less than 15 grammatical or spelling errors, then I’ll take orders from you.
@20 – “your” post makes you look like a fordham mba
@ 14: If anything, being any benchmark is free PR for VS (no bad PR). I could recommend a book or two on dealing with insecurity, too.
Besides, my “Bar Mitzvah money” is being managed by positive alpha funds (which, by default, excludes you, as you use THE mouse, and your unsurpassed douchery cannot be hidden behind your “guest” handle).
@18/NS
That gem you left of the CG thread is going to go unnoticed unfortunately.
Bravo though.
@27 noted. Timing is everything.
the encino schwab office is the new killin’ it!
@NS – you did not labor in shadows, it was duly noted (as evidenced @27), it is just not as widely publicized as some of your other great work, like H-BCMLLC…
@ NS – passage of time is the cure for timing mistakes. I admit of printing some of your posts to enjoy with a sip of Armagnac. Both timeless pleasures.
More importantly, IMDB indicates there’s like only 3 hot(ish) chicks in this WHOLE movie, 2 are credited (“Natasha” and “Audrey,” hookers, maybe?)and the other, uncredited, what the f*ck sorta Bullsh*t is that?!
@26, do you have any books that deal with being a tremendous knob? Im sure you do, and you should pick up some more because the first few didnt help.
Your use of buzzwords in the rest of your post convince me more that you are a back office tool…..
He went here to get all the best tips: twitter.com/insidertrading
He was training at Schottenfeld, this is a fact. There is even a scene in the new wall street movie that was filmed there.
@32 – It is true I have a giant knob, and, no, for the last time, I will not let you play with it. I could Gundlach you, though, for a nominal fee.
P.S. – are you implying that FO does not know what positive alpha means, or is it just limited to your shop, where I hear, it is a prerequisite to join? This concludes my comments to you, for now, and in the future (or else, my dislexy will flare up again).
Over the course of filming his $20K investment appreciated to $489K? Assuming a six month shooting schedule that’s a ~4,690% return. He must be a good friend of James B. Blair.
Daring bored SEC staffers on national television is the new killing it.
Way to go Shit the Beef.

I have to assume his next series of career moves will be to start a hedge fund, run it into the ground, write an awful book, and end up hawking penny stock DVDs in a DoubleTree conference room.
@27/28. Except #1 in that thread was a troll.
I don’t think the CFA Institute would approve of his casual commentary about investment chicanery and the lack of a well-coordinated and efficient financial market. I believe this interview warrants a review with the Disciplinary Committee in violation of the CFA Code of Ethics and the Standards of Professional Conduct. As a potential charterholder, Shia should be held to a higher standard.
The comments in this thread have been generally awesome.
~Guy Who Knows His Threads
Where the hell is the Joke Briefer.
Some people here are either a) new to the board or b) Fordham MBAs.
Fordham MBA or University of Phoenix CFA?
24.45x on investment…what’s the IRR you faggot?
what a complete blowhard, lying through his teeth, ok Shia lets see audited fin’l statements and I will bet anything that you did not make >100% let alone 4000+% as you claim. Not to mention the movie looks incredibly stupid.
-Shia Ladouche
dont be hatin’
@37 should be 4,690% annualized or 2,345% for the six month period.
44 – no need to use PE jargon (IRR) if the 20k was invested all at once. You, see, IRR is tantamount to money-weighted return, which is only applicable when there is more than one investment inflow or more than one outflow and you are looking for a return that reflets the money-on-money annualized return.

Anal_yst, pictures of tutoring LeBeef in the Equinox steam room or it didn’t happen.
PTJ
Megan’s prepuce >>> money
I thought Fordham burned to the ground during the celebrations over the OJ verdict. No?
HAM is right – you guys should stop hatin’.
I am familiar with someone who moved from schwab’s encino office. they utilize a highly levered strategy that was developed by a fordham educated cfa. by purchasing options on margin, then employing the analysis championed by nassim taleb while following roubini’s view of the market they have been able to generate these outsized returns.
or was it because our hero opened the account with $20k then transferred another $500k after he got paid for completing the film?
Shia, expect a call soon.
- Unamused SEC guy
Hollywood = he bought $20k in coke then sold it along with his rectum. Big profits.
Am I the only one who find Megan F skanky/trashy (and not in a good way)?
I sniff his underwear.

It went from him and the help of his entire team “of like four or five guys I was really working with” to “four of the nine guys” in the matter of four minutes.
Where’s Fordham?
@59- In the Bronx, off of the island.
@60- the business and law schools are across the street from Lincoln Center. Which is on “the island.”
buddy let me give you some advice. If you want to stop looking like a goat, get rid of your facial hair.
@ 20,43,60 – Devry or Apex tech?
@3/LB nice use of “dickshine.”
methinks cluzo @ 52 is onto something
I also once turned $20k into $489k…by lying totally lying about having done so. Douche.
Top notch business school…Fordham…Shit! and I just came here because it was free!

His returns are very plausible.

78-83 the sextuple post is impressive, most idiots only double post, but you sir are a special breed of imbecile. Be sure to put your helmet on before leaving the house.

This reminds me of when Hillary Clinton claimed they had taken a $10k investment in cattle futures and parlayed it into $3 million.
(insert word used by John Mayer) please.

Isn’t Fordham one of those that have tie-ups, eg. with UK’s Croydon Business School and China’s Chongqing Financial Academy?
Can I get my MBA diploma by post in 2 weeks’ time? I have an interview with Citi…

91-96 another master of the sextuple post. You may want to try your luck at a school daddy’s money/connections can get you into.
I call BS.
There’s no way someone could turn 20K into 490 in a ‘mere couple of months’.
Fuck this guy.
IwNS3O I really enjoy the blog post.Really thank you! Much obliged.
mEAkI7 Really informative blog.Really thank you! Really Great.
