Sykes has commented elsewhere that his goal to become "a great teacher, not a great investor" but in this sad excuse for a tutorial he proves to be neither as his amateurish errors practically drive him from the market, credibility (what little he had) completely shredded. Perhaps, however, it's not truly his fault: let's face it, when it comes to imparting wisdom from Wall Street it is simply not possible that a raw twenty-something simply has much to say.<BR/><BR/>Not that Sykes doesn't try however. In perusing the "comments" portion of Amazon book reviews, he's certainly not reluctant to chime in and offer a defense at nearly every turn. Find me ONE other author at Amazon that feels so compelled to argue his own incompetence. <BR/><BR/>Tim Sykes should end his determined quest to become a media personality as his grating manner and decidedly non-telegenic looks suit him far better to shine shoes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36003095.post-387479082195811192007-07-13T01:25:00.000-04:002007-07-13T01:25:00.000-04:00Last time I made a name change I made a some money...Last time I made a name change I made a some money, maybe it might be a good idea to do it again.OBAThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00855870627073079524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36003095.post-19740733259975438612007-07-12T21:43:00.000-04:002007-07-12T21:43:00.000-04:00OBAT,Does this mean we can expect another name cha...OBAT,<BR/><BR/>Does this mean we can expect another name change on the blog?
