Dear Leveraged Sellout, I’m You…Only Better…Bitch

Posted by Timothy Sykes on Fri 5th of Sep, 2008 03:55:31 PM

Remember I wrote THIS post about the horrific timing/outright failure of Leveraged Sellout’s bookDamn It Feels Dumb To Be A Published Author?”

Well, now he tries to fight back in THIS interview with WSF…saying “Who the fuck is Timothy Sykes?”

I’ll respond to that in a sec, but understand his publisher is so desperate for sales, they even sprung for a THIS bad ass video and while it’s actually pretty funny/well done, it still isn’t helping him sell many copies of his over-hyped book (Amazon sales rank of 500 means 150 books/week)

Okay here’s my response:

1. Amit, you represent investment bankers, aka scum of the earth aka soulless aka universally despised…not only does my little publishing startup make more money than most IBers, I’m only getting started and I actually help others too. Damn it feels dumb to be a published author on such a hyped but shitty industry.

2. You’re wittier/funnier/smarter than me–how the f$%^ haven’t you figured out how to make more $/be more helpful to society than me?

3. Your industry/blog has been dying a slow death for the past several months/years and everyone knows it but you. You and your publisher shoulda woulda coulda admitted your failure outright and saved us the desperate attempts to hide the fact that your book is the financial equivalent of Little Nicky

4. I’m done wasting my time on this post cuz while it’s entertaining, it doesn’t do much good. Kinda like your blog/book/life/industry. You want lessons on how to be a better person/businessman, contact me HERE, you’re young so there’s still time for you to change.

Talk to ya soon bitch.
