READER COMMENTS:
1. 'By his own admission, this guy wasn't much of a banker, and, going by his book, he's not much of a writer either. He has now proved that he can't sing. What exactly is he good for ?'.
2. 'He has become a parody of himself. It's a bit embarrassing now'.
3. 'Cityboy has blown it. Given his background in the industry, he had the chance to make a decent career for himself as a serious market commentator. His mad dash for profile and silly do-anything-for-publicity approach has, however, made him a laughing stock. How can anyone ever take anything he says seriously now ?'.
4. 'He has traded a long-term career as an industry spokesperson for 15 cheap minutes of fame. This time next year he'll be kicking himself, and we will have forgotten who he was'.
5. 'Give him some credit. This guy is clearly no fool - he's just been rated best stockpicker in his sector by Starmine for the third time in four years. I can only think that all this exposure must be part of some cunning grand masterplan'.
6. 'Lighten up and enjoy someone who brings a smile to our faces'.
7. 'I did enjoy the book. Shakespeare he's not, but then he never claimed to be'.
8. 'Hey, at least he doesn't have to sit in the office like us losers. Sure, the video is a bit silly, but who cares ?'.
9. 'I feel sorry for 'Shelter' - bet they could have done with some money!'.
10. 'I make him right. He has said: 'I'm afraid that I am, and seemingly always will be, a competitive t.sser'.''
