Default Wall Street Warriors!

I discovered this program on my cable systems HD channels and am now recording every episode. It's a documentary that follows around wall street traders, hedge fund investors, floor traders, funds of fund managers, etc and shows you how they work and play. Even though it's a little focused on traders, I find it fascinating. They've picked some interesting people to follow, and you can get some insight into their strategies.

Anyone else watch this show?

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

Man I just came across this show now and it's amazing. I work in the industry as an "investment Representative" for a large discount brokerage in Canada. I love this industry and with the right mix of stocks and poker life is beautiful. BALLIN...Great show

I'm surprised so many people love this show. I find it meh.

BTW, Sykes is an ass who got lucky in the late 90s and whose true colors are beginning to surface.

Is Sykes the douchebag kid who wants to start a hedge fund?

DesertCat,

Please clear one of your PMs. Or you can PM me your answer to this question: What type of corporate structure do you have for your fund? LLC or S Corp? Or even a C Corp?

I wrote a post like this before but don't know if you don't want to answer it or didn't read it. If you don't want to answer it, give me a sign via PM so I can stop asking for it.

Thanks [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
