Welcome to TIMBUCKS!
TIMBUCKS is the new rewards program designed to get you guys to share your thoughts, ideas and experiences openly. You know I’m all about being brutally honest and while I’m pleased with our community, I won’t rest until every single visitor to this website is sharing openly-so I’m gonna bribe you with cool products and rewards to make it happen!
As for the specific rewards… gimme a break, I just put together this ridiculous website, it’s like building the pyramids all over again, a list of all the cool stuff is coming soooooon
Currently, you’ll earn TIMBUCKS by commenting on blog posts and posting in the forums, but soon you’ll be able to submit videos, pictures, links, purchase products, join TIMaffiliates and get rewarded for it all-post something useful and others will reward you too. You might just find yourself waking up to something like 100 free trades from one of our sponsors!
So, do me a favor and never be embarrassed about asking any question, posting about any stock-well only if it’s liquid and volatile-and sharing your opinion about anything whatsoever! Remember, I get too many emails as it is, so if you have a question, do me a favor and ask it in TIMforums or TIMreviews. you’ll get a quicker response and you’ll be earning while you’re learning!

Tim, your website is GREAT! I am the person you first came to about having it done - But fortunately you didn’t pick me, as this website is reallllly good! I’m sure it’ll only get better too, and I can’t wait to see more of your success later. Soon, you’ll be writing a book, and how you became a multi-millionaire with your website :P

Tim… awesome new site! The TIMBucks are a nice incentive, however sharing your knowledge is gift-enough. (imho)
You can always judge the character of a man by what he’ll do for someone who can do nothing for him in return.
You’ve got a lot of character Mr. Sykes.

I rarely do more than scan other stock picking blogs/ sites; however, your site is refreshing and one of a kind in this Wild West of the stock market. You, unlike most of these no talent hacks who fancy themselves as stock analysts, understand and are open about the fact that this is a sham of a market, but it doesn’t make the money any less real. Pumping and dumping is happening on the bigger boards also, just in a much more insider driven, surreptitious fashion, leaving us the outsiders scratching our head with lint filled pockets. On the Micro-caps PnDs can be spotted from a mile away, why not take advantage of our American right to profit! Two cheers for this site bud, you have yourself a long time reader here.

Like the TIMbucks…these should be retro-active. j/k. it’s great what you’re doing. any thoughts w/ all the volatility w/ the airlines? funny how many are now trading under $10 and rally w/ the rest of the micro-crapers but i’m not so sure they’d qualify for super-nova material anytime soon and i’m not into value investing either. anyway the site rocks.

I had my concerns about your website when you showed us a preview picture, however I get it now…this is all about building a niched community.
I think you are going to pull it off.
I look forward to get some good ideas from this section.
I wish you best of success and while you are having fun, find time to take it easy and rest - you sound like you need a vacation.

Awe inspiring book. I read it twice and took notes. I now have co-workers
hooked on it. My company offers a 401k with stock trading option.
90% of everyones mutual fund is in the tank, so there has to be a better
way of raising the our gains. Presto!! I and others in our company will
invest in your dvd.
Thank You

Hey tim, love the new website, are you going to have a place where we can see when you make a new trade so we can follow your trades in real time or at least a few min delays.
Thank you,

Hopefully ill get enought tim bucks to cash it in for the book and have it shipped to singapore hahahah. great site tim. but i would prefer if you had more original content for tim tv. i have a short attention span mayber you could have a photo slide
and just talk over your trades for the day on it so i could multi task while going to and fro your tim tv without having to read some of your site as i have a lot read “a lot of sites” to go over for my trading day

Thanks for adding me Tim- I’ve had a great time following you from the first episode of WSW (absolutely love Mojo- especially “Three Sheets”) and found your first website early on when the TIM was hovering around 13-14k. I’ve posted several times under both ‘Evan’ and ‘Islandminister’. Any way to back track and pro-rate my TIMBUCKS? :)

Love your site and philosophy on shorting. Pretty new to trading but made consistent money watching the biggest gainers and shorting when they lost steam. People thought I was crazy when I said what I was doing. Hasn’t been easy finding someone who talks about this stuff especially on the “next level” as you are doing. Killer site. Thanks for making your stand and educating. nh

All in on my TimBucks(ticker=TB), short selling the chart (homemade one at that)a classic supernova is now dropping like a stone….maybe a falling knife, who knows? Can’t seem to find any TB to short though..any suggestions?
I hope that all the haters (hackers) have got it out of their system and we can move forward without their garbage/childishness.

TIMOTHY I AM HOOKED ON YOUR STORY AND THE WAY YOU TRADE I LIKE THE WAY YOU KEEP THINGS SIMPLE AND THE WAY TO PLAY, I TRADE ALL THE TIME BUT DON’T SEEM TO MAKE MUCH GAINS, I CAN’T AVOID LOOKING INTO THE FINACIALS OF EACH OF THE COMPANIES I AM INTERESTED IN, BUT THAT’S WHAT THEY THOUGH ME IN THE EXPENSIVE COURSE I TOOK AND I USE TO DO A LOT MORE RESEARCH THANT WHAT I DO NOW DO YOU THINK I SHOULD JUST FOCUS ON THE CHART AS LONG AS AM PLAYING SHORT TERM. AND ONE MORE THING HAVE YOU NOTICE THE THE NEEDLE HEAD ON THE TOP THAT SEEMS TO INDICATE AN UPWARD ACTION IN THE STOCK CHART, AND THE OPPOSITE AT THE TOP FOR SHORTS.

Tim,
I’ve been a member since May, but have spent the last few months trying to dig up dirt on you. The only thing I could dig up was a lot of envy spewed by those Wall Street moron talking heads - yeah, you know who I’m talking about. You back up everything you say, and you are not afraid to admit your fcukups. THAT IS THE KEY to your success…
…Oh and btw, some of your followers can, in fact, read, which reminds me, I still need to get bar mitzvahed…maybe before I’m 50…
