    spoiled rich kid

    got lucky pre bubble
    current fund down about 35-40%
    must have good publicist-cuz i dont know how he gets play on cnbc with his track record
    egomaniac,who should tell his mom he's old enough to do his own laundry
    half guys on this board kill this him on performance
    has been that never was

    he might sell a few books but stay away
    way to much sleeze factor

  3. Corrections:

    1. Grew up in a middle class family, never spoiled until I EARNED $2 MILLION before my 22nd birthday.

    2. Made Money in 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 and 2005. (Don't ever try to give me that 'only made money in the bubble crap)

    3. Never used a PR person until this past month for the book. My press has been EARNED by my story and my big mouth.

    4. My ego got me into trouble, mostly because nobody before me had ever detailed their cockiness being dangerous (My book will change this)

    5. Don't criticize losses so much--they've been horribly painful for me and my investors, but they serve as great teaching tools for you.

  4. Hey timmay, I thought that video you made on being frugal with your money was actually pretty good. You came across well.

    I guess being a jew, it's second nature :p kidding

  9. Do it, I encourage you--I think we should all shares our stories honestly. If your story is any good, I'll publish it!

    i can only speculate that when Uncle Schlomo and Aunt Sylvia had enough, his fund went to nada. Real money,serious money,even high net worth guys(forget family office and pension money) would'nt look at this guy twice. Good luck with the book,what do make? about 18 cents a copy?

    you are burnt out at a young age,go find something that your good at.
