What is your proof? You went on and on about it and now you are backing off. I could care either way if he was there or not, but you seem so sure he was not there so if you say so back it up.

You call this backing off ? I've had more posts today than i've had in quite a while, you tool.

Where is "surf"s proof? Are you a gopher for him ? How sad.

As I said, we'll let Oprah decide for herself. My note to her was short and to the point.
I know he was not there.

To be candid, I don't see how it is clear that he lied about being at this party you guys are talking about. Someone asked what artwork was inside the entrance of the house and the guy responded that it was a lawn party. It may have been the truth or a dodge, but his response does not "prove" that he lied, near as I can tell. Either way, I'm guessing that the general controversy of this thread will probably help sell books insofar as ET members are concerned. Just guessing, of course.

you guys are idiots, I just talked to tim on the phone and he says he had the numbers taken down because the info posted was taken from a site restricted to accredited investors. he says he's not trying to hide anything and that everything will be explained in the book.

With all due respect, that is pretty weak.

Not sure what is between you and surf, B but as for me, I am asking a question thats all. I understand why you are not going to answer it.

Not quite. I asked about the artwork. I know he lied. and I've shared my proof w whom it matters most, Oprah. I don't want to see her make a mistake and be embarrased. And no, i do not know Oprah at all.

There are many ways he could have proved he was at SAC's house on any night, by identifying key pieces, inside or out. But on this particualr night, i know for 100% he was not there. notice how timmy has dropped out of sight rather than telling anything relevant about SAC's house.

BTW, I was at trumps apt ONCE 10 yrs ago, and i can still recall specific pieces in his apt to this day. Funny how timmy was unable to describe anything.

Doesn't anyone see this ??

1) He wasn't the one who posted the numbers therefore he could not get into any trouble for them appearing on these pages. He had them removed because his numbers suck...plain and simple.

2) Tim saying "It's all explained in the book" is simply a marketing ploy for idiots to go buy that worthless drivel. I can explain it right now and save you the $50 dollar book charge....

Tim made good money from '99-'01....SO DID EVERY OTHER ASSHOLE WITH A PULSE AND A TRADING ACCOUNT. His numbers are shit ever since the bubble popped. Anyone who traded at a prop or retail firm back then can tell you stories of literally hundreds of "great traders" who made millions, but couldn't make a dime after the bubble burst and are now out of business.

He knows the trading game is up for him and he's trying to milk his t.v. appearance into a book deal and other "alternative" sources of income.

I give him credit for trying to get a payday for something he did 7 years ago. But anyone who pays for that book or wastes time reading it is either really bored or really stupid.

Look, the onus is on timmy to prove he's not lying. he wants to be on Oprah. I don't. Why don't you ask timmy for anything relevant to prove he was at SAC's house, even once.

As far as evidence that I know he wasn't there ? I forwarded it to Oprah. What else do you want me to answer. i'm quite available today, until 2:15pm that is.

I hope that quote isn't from Timmy Sykes, is it? Please tell me he didn't say that.

Well, it's amazing the things people get to say on TV or in a book for that matter. I am having a hard time believing that someone who trades in their bathrobe and slippers doesnt get out of phase when they are up or down $50k in a day. Perhaps, the book has some good revelations.

This is a post of mine from the original Wall St. Warriors thread (February '07)....

Quote from Longhorns:

Ughhh, I just wasted 20 minutes of my life on that.

I had seen 2 other episodes of that nonsense a few months ago...now I remember why I never watched it again.

I almost vomited listening to those mid 20's "Wall St." jokers sitting at the restaurant with all their delusions of grandeur.

Timmy Goldberg and his start-up hedge fund....lol.
The guy trades from his apartment and has his mommy come over to clean it twice a month.
I hope his future "investors" took notice when he told his mom to "shut up and get out of here, I'm fucking down $5,000 dollars!!!"...then later at dinner he's telling his bozo friends that making or losing 50 g's in a day is no big deal. LMAO...what a douchebag.

Thankfully, the show is on INHD so I doubt anyone watched it. The show is a total waste of time.

The fact that Timmy shit in his diapers about being down $5000 dollars and then lied to his friends about "not caring if I'm up or down $50,000" should tell you everything you need to know about Timmy Sykes integrity and honesty.

He is a mook and a liar. I hope the sheep who buy his book realize what they are paying for.

Quote from ghostzapper:

As i've said, i've never lied in all my years on this board.

Well, only a little white lie about meeting me in Chicago to brawl.

Did you really contact Oprah? I'd think it would be impossible to prove otherwise. You guys will have to bet on a Timmay Oprah appearance!
