What might have been. If only Grunin thought things through first ...

Penny-Stock Guru Tim Sykes Embraces Role of

From what I understand one of his strategies (maybe his only, I don't know) is to identify 'pink-sheet' or 'penny' stocks that have moved higher in conjunction with self-marketing campaigns and to short them.

And from what I do know is that he takes 50,000 pictures of every exotic destination vacation he goes on and posts pictures of them year round telling his get-rich-quick followers about the good life.
 


So much to learn from this single quote in the article, very applicable to many things.... stocks, real estate, IM....

"By the time he realized that his profits were more a result of luck than skill...."
 
Most of his money is from subscriptions now. Fake it until you make it?

Well it did say he made $875,000 on a $500,000 account doing live trades in front of those guys. Sure the $4 million he made on the sub fees is better but he's less of a poser than most guys selling that stuff I'd say based on those type of results.

However he ran a hedge fund in 2007 before it went bust. I doubt many guys still running hedge funds are jealous of $5 million/yr...
 
"outlandish self-promotional strategies have made him richer than trading ever did"

^ Replace the word "trading" with whatever industry you are in and chances are you are now talking about any guru.

I'm guessing those results come because anything he picks will be pumped by his followers.

That is why he always dumps quickly (per article)
 
This guy was Dan Bilzerian before Dan Bilzerian...but a lot more of a nerdy Jew and not as cool.
 
the tv show that made him famous also revealed him to be a joke... unsure why anyone would follow him?
