It’s My Birthday And I’ll Send Out Beta Invites If I Want To!

Posted by timothysykes on Tue 15th of Apr, 2008 11:22:41 AM

Today is my 27th birthday , woooo hooooo! Seems like just the other day I was this crazy looking kid in the picture below:

timyoung1 Its My Birthday And Ill Send Out Beta Invites If I Want To!

Guess which one is me–yah, that pic alone is enough crazy celebration for one day, back to business. Unlike every other year, I’m not doing anything special—got a bunch of blog posts to write, ideas to research, radio interviews tonight and an early morning flight to beautiful Buffalo tomorrow (speaking at U of B’s business school tomorrow night if you’re in the area!) Yup, I’m one motivated SOB—this ain’t about the $, it’s about cutting through all the industry BS and teaching you guys to profit from it—never forget that.

Instead of getting cool presents—I don’t need much, all the expensive stuff I’ve ever got has broken, been lost or I’ve become bored with rather quickly—I thought I’d give you guys something—to the first 50 people who leave a comment on this post will get access to a special sneak preview of my new website, which, no more f%#$en excuses will debut on May 1, 2008, and will feature the first episode of the long-awaited / much-hyped TIMtv!

Yah, I know the website was supposed to be done today, but there’s just too much cool stuff out there and since I’m hoping this new site will outlast this current one (what’s it been 2 months?) and the last one (4 months) (ahhh my commitment issues are getting worse!), I just have to add everything, Super Shredder-style.

So, go on, leave a comment and open the present I’m gonna email you!

    thanks everyone, emails are going out to the top 50..as for shorts OCCX would be ideal if the price were 10x, 70 cents to $4.70, now that great for shorting...as it is, it's too low the risk reward just sux

    Let GMTN go up a bit

    I know I am not within the first 50 replies, but I want to say Happy Birthday anyway. I have made the decision to quit my job at the brokerage firm I work at now to pursue my dream of making money in my bathrobe. No more being a bitch for my firm. LOL. If you ever have anything going on in the Atlanta area, please let me know. I would love to get my copy of An American Hedgefund signed.

    Thanks,

    Dan

    Tim, yesterday PSTI released a second BS press release and I guess people bought the hype driving the stock up to my entry point. Needless to say I had to cover my short for almost a breakeven gain opposed to the killing I could of made the day before. Here is my question, do you find that companies like this typically go for the the one-two-punch with their press releases? The press release that drove the stock up again contained no additional material facts...
