At his high school graduation last year, Tyler Coyner told the audience his goal in life was to become a hedge fund manager. Coyner was the class’s salutatorian and finished his time at Pahrump Valley High School with a 4.54 grade point average. That number may be slightly higher than it ought to have been, as Coyner was the founder of a business that charged students money to raise their GPA’s, by breaking into the school’s computer system.
Police say Tyler Coyner, 19, was the ringleader in a group of 13 students who have been charged with conspiracy, theft and computer intrusion in connection with the case. Last year, Coyner somehow obtained a password to the Pahrump Valley High School’s grade system and, over the course of two semesters, offered to change grades in return for cash payments, police say.
Born with some serious business sense, the grade deal wasn’t the only thing Coyner had going on. Police apparently found “equipment for making fake driver’s licenses” in Coyner’s dorm room at the University of Nevada-Reno (in addition to a flat screen TV, allegedly borrowed from Wal-Mart). Anyway, back to Coyner’s dreams- as his seems to be a victimless crime, much like insider trading, anyone want to hook him up with a summer internship?
He could fix GPA’s and he goes to Nevada-Reno? Asshole.

Tyler,
If you get out of these charges, my new lady friend is looking for an ID. I’ll trade you for her dad’s email.

Hedge Fund? I wouldn’t hire that guy to manage my lawn care.
Sure, you start of by changing grades in the school computer system which seems harmless. But what happens when a little while later you almost start WW III? You’ve gotta be careful when you start down that road.
So his shop has Sales; Fake IDs and Retail Brokerage; Fees for grade changing. He needs more buy-side. Asset Management; find a PM with a solid Sharpe, buy some pure cocaine, cut and distribute. I hear the multiples are strong to quite strong off those transactions.
this fucker is going slay in this biz. bigger than Shia, even
THAT IS CORRECT.
Shall we play a game?

Rumor is Jeffery Epstein already signed Tyler.
Wrong website buddy. You missed the left turn to ZH and the subsequent right turn to STFU
Going to college *in Reno* period is the NKI.
Imagine spending your college years in a place where gambling and prostitution are legal…

This is the only thing that needs to be said.
Really – you’re advertising your UMass – Lowell degree?

”I asked for a hedge fund, I got a computer. How’s that for being born under a bad sign?”
I went to Dartmouth. We might have hung out!
Somebody get this kid a job application at Goldman Sachs.
David Spade is not some “Random dude in Tommy Boy”.
I’m sure some bankster will snap him up after he gets out of jail. He’s their kind of guy; entrepreneurial and totally devoid of ethics.
Also he should be charges with plagarism, having stolen the idea for hacking grades in high school from Ferris Bueller. Any one? Any one?
Someone send his resume to Rebellion Research. Seems like their ideal candidate although they’d have to split their $160 in fees 5 ways instead of 4.
You shut your mouth while you’re talking to me.
I’m guessing he couldn’t figure out how to fix his SAT scores.
i hooked up with a girl from holyoke once. she was awesome
I look at 100 deals a day. I pick one.

Nevada sends their HS students to state college for free if they have a B+ average. So it is UNR or UNLV; he is a loser for picking UNR. Reb-els!!!
As someone who went to UNLV and still managed to work in finance – going to school in Las Vegas was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!
Mousy says he stinkfingered Bunny Cote, everyone lauged like a bastard.
