Are you the Ron Burgundy of tweeting?

Posted on April 28, 2011 by Eli Radke • 2 Comments

This is not directly related to trading but I have thinking about how I gather information. Some of you are retweeting things without reading them. We are all busy, I understand, but do not be a Twurgundy.

Twurgundy- A person who retweets something just because it showed up in their timeline.

I just pulled a twurgundy.
I got twurgunded.
He always twurgunds his followers so I had to dump him.

I admit in slow markets I probably get a little carried away with my tweeting and take away from your attention. If you are looking for less of me and more of markets I suggest following me on stocktwits.

    In my case: I get overwhelmed with the amount of free knowledge and education in the field that I’m extremely passionate about and feel the need to share by retweeting or forwarding the great ideas I know someone else could benefit from.

    I’m a retweeting slut – I admit it!
