Will you buy timmay's hedge fund book?

Quote from ghostzapper:

Timmay, you will learn the hard way. Getting 10,000+ emails on the internet means zero. Anyone will do anything on the net for free. Getting them to pay is something entirely different..as you will find out.

Quote from TimothySykes:

I didn't just get 10,000 emails on the internet, 10,000+ people have emailed me...

Gotta love a good college education ! More good pr for you ?

Quote from TimothySykes:

...because there's no such thing as bad PR. What's your address, I'll mail you some books on marketing so I don't have to waste my time educating you. LOL

You should have taken the $35K. And if you knew anything about marketing, you wouldn't have allowed the time w Cavuto to go totally against you. You're pimping your own book on TV, and yet Cavuto toyed w your story w barely a mention of such "book". Great marketing timmay !
And you wanna teach us about marketing ? LMAO.

Way to continue your streak of taking everything I say out of context. Maybe you could help me respond to each 2 page emails asking me to detail my story?

As for Cavuto, my book is 3 months away--I wasn't going on there to promote a product yet! The producers wanted to see how I'd do on live TV because we're talking about a recurring role. Apparently, I did well enough for me to have meetings setup with their producers next week to pitch show ideas (if anybody has any ideas, feel free to send them my way). Things could get interesting with their upcoming business channel launch right around the time when my book debuts

So, you see my ignorant little friend, your arguments are lacking because you don't have access to all the facts--sorry! But, please feel free to continue, its fun/easy to show everybody how uninformed your are!

1. For better or worse, I don't get embarrassed.

2. I didn't just get 10,000 emails on the internet, 10,000+ people have emailed me some pretty ridiculously long emails asking for more details about my story, trading, hedge funds==big, big difference. I don't have time to reply to each person individually--this book will answer everyone's questions.

3. As I mentioned in my post and you ignored, if I only saw me on highly edited/live TV clips and read about me in puffy articles, I'd vote no for this book, too--it doesn't matter, nobody knows all the details and the few that have read them ALL say the book is great.

4. I'm not surprised only a few people on ET have stuck up for my book--I only sent out a few copies to bloggers, journalists, HF managers-- the majority of ET users didn't qualify. Sorry.

5. I love how you care about the exact average of your little poll--it could be a solid 4 and it'd still be a success because there's no such thing as bad PR. What's your address, I'll mail you some books on marketing so I don't have to waste my time educating you. LOL

2. Too bad those people don't know that you have only turned a 1.5% compound profit in 4 years or they wouldn't give you a second of attention.

3. "Highly edited" tv clips of you being an asshole? YOU BEING AN ASSHOLE and they edited that huh? Wow, you might be able to try and bullshit about your returns, but you can't pretend that the producers somehow made you magically look like a schmuck, you did that all by yourself.

4. You were sending your book out to anyone. Your retarded cousin marketsurfer posted a blog link with you posting reviews of your book in the comments section of a blog post that had nothing to do with your book.

5. There is such a thing as bad marketing. See, if I hadn't seen you on tv, read your stupid posts here, and heard about your investment(among much laughter from most who overheard) in CYGT I might have glanced at your book and just bought it without reading into it, now there's no chance in hell. I'd imagine that if people knew you'd only turned a whopping 1.5% profit in the last 4 years your book wouldn't sell more than 100 copies.

You're already on the downhill with this book. This book is an attempt by you to make a bit of money since you can't do it trading. Strangely enough you're writing about trading and the only reason people will buy your book is because they think you can trade...but you can't. So after this book, then what? You should have taken the family jewelery store!

And just because I know its gonna piss a lot of people off, I'm tentatively scheduled to be on Fox News with Neil Cavuto from 4-5pm on Wednesday, July 4th in a segment to be called "An American Success Story." Talking about what else, my upcoming book (he got an advance copy, too and liked it enough to want to have me on 3 months in advance) Hope you all watch! LOL

Wow, anymore bullshit lies? Good line of honesty...not promoting your book, promoting your book. Not a great trader, a great trader. You're honestly the biggest fucking flip flopper EVER!

PLEASE TELL ME HOW I AM TAKING THOSE STATEMENTS OUT OF CONTEXT! You're a fucking idiot and clearly stated they were having you on to talk about your book and then say they weren't?! I wouldn't expect much more from a guy who can't make money and writes books about what he's not making money doing.

Seriously, you can't even keep track of your lies and bullshit. How much money have you not made trading recently?! :eek:

This is why you're not on live national TV---plans can change in a heartbeat and you gotta roll with it. Unfortunately, you weren't in the FOX dressing room before the show to hear the conversation between the producers and me. Who cares about a stupid little 4 minute promo slot when there's a possibility of a recurring role or even an entire show!

So, you see, its not your fault, you just don't have all the facts. The same goes for all your posts about my returns.

You specifically said you were going there to promote a book and now you're saying you weren't going there to promote the book. Which line do you think people should believe?

Things change. If you say they changed in the dressing room, fine. But to say that you were going to promote the book and now say you weren't going there to promote the book is flip-flopping.

You haven't turned a profit in 2 years...what more is there to say? You barely have a 4 year compound profit. If you were any good at this trading stuff, you'd have a profit.

I don't need to be on tv, I have a bunch of money and haven't lost much of it like you have.

So, explain how YOU CHANGING YOUR STATEMENTS ABOUT WHY YOU WENT ON CAVUTO is me not understanding that you made two completely opposite statements that had nothing to do with what producers told you once you were on the show but were directly relating to you lying? Explain that one...also, how much money haven't you made lately?!

How about this book cover for a book about your fund's history...although if you told the truth about how your fund is doing you wouldn't have anyone interested in reading your story huh?:

Let me buy you some reading lessons with all that money I supposedly don't have. We keep going over the same points and my responses just don't seem to be sinking in, so here you again (please try to focus, maybe reading aloud might help):

1. I went on Cavuto with the intent of to promoting my book. An hour before we aired, producers said since the book's debut was so far away, they really just wanted to see how I'd do on camera for the possibility of a recurring role and to talk about all the possibilities for their upcoming network.

2. People are giving me great reviews EVEN AFTER SEEING ALL MY RETURNS. I lay it out in the book--hiding stuff is boring to me and counterproductive.

Speaking of which, bestselling author of "TrendFollowing" and the upcoming book, "The Complete TurtleTrader", Michael Covel, just gave me a great blurb, so great I'll probably print it on the cover. It's gonna get interesting!!!!

 

[hidethereal]

I'm planning on buying and reading the book. Would I have before reading through this thread? Probably not.

Regardless of what the returns of Timmay's account may be I believe there is a genuine story to be read. After reading through all this animosity all it did was spark my interest and curiosity.

READ AGAIN STUPID:

You made two statements giving two completely different objectives for going on the show. One was that you were going on to promote your book and the other was that you weren't. Those are completely irrespective of what the producers told you once you got to the dressing room, COMPLETELY SEPARATE.

Here are the two statements in a more condensed form so your little pea brain can grasp how you made two completely different statements irrespective of what producers told you once you were on the show:

It's gonna get interesting when you make $30k off your book and then lose it trying to trade? How much money HAVEN'T you made lately?!
