My portfolio was +94% in 2024 and +52% in the past 6 months (I took a massive haircut thanks to April's tariff saga and by having biblical levels of greed...lesson learned).

How do I declare for the inaugural Hedge Fund Draft?

Why would you want to work anywhere if you get returns like that every year?

If you've got 1m to play with, you're making ~ 1m a year pre-tax. If you work at a fund and can scale those returns up on 1Bn, you can make ~1Bn and then clipping even 1% of that is $10m.

Get those returns on big chunks of other people's money and take a cut

I think the hedge fund guys would rather be you…

Just say you run a “small family office” and enjoy the win ;)
