I find the show entertaining, he seems like a [censored] in some scenes, but maybe they were "out of context".

Kudos for him for what he did with his personal account. Looks like he has hit the wall a bit in the hedge fund world:

July2007: -1.65%
YTD2007: -10.26%

This forum was mentioned earlier and it looks like he is down 36% over the last 19 months.

He was the biggest [censored] loser when he took the girl out to dinner.

Anyone have opinions on the main players (esp Tim Sykes)? I've only watched one episode so far.

Most people will probably think he's a wanker. People root for the underdog, and when he makes it, they root for him to fall on his face.

I personally also think he's a wanker, but then I would have though that when he was still in high school. I still wish him well.

He reminds me of all the 20-something year-old wankers that hung around Thames-side bars in London in the early 80s with 50 quid notes hanging out of their shirt pockts, drinking Champagne and sleeping with tarts whose names' they didn't know.

Good look Tim (you bastard)

That is certainly the way he came off looking on the show. I can't imagine anyone who watched it would feel inclined to invest in his hedge fund. He seems like a walking posterboy for "fooled by randomness". That said I wish him no ill will either and time will tell if he's got it or got lucky.

Just watched episode 1...this show could be so much better if it was better directed/edited. Hopefully the other episodes are more interesting.
