every one that I've looked into... which is a ton of them (been investor for years and have many relatives in the industry).

This post is absolutely nuts.. Most hedge funds are run by brilliantly successful people who make their investors a very satisfactory return. Trust me if racing horses was 1/10 as straightforward and successful as MOST hedgefunds racing would be flourishing. The reason why Hedge fund investing is growing in popularity is because most (probably 75 to 80%) earn a profit each year.

You are an idiot.

It's kinda like saying all Irish are drunks ? A ridiculous assumption/generalization.


Name some of the funds you looked into?
