As a result of his presence on television, he has become a cult figure, including inspiring fansites on social networking sites Facebook and MySpace.[3][4][5] Rove McManus paid tribute to him on his show Rove Live with regular crosses to Tom Piotrowski detailing the week in finance throughout 2009.
