      beswick1111 while it is fantastic that you are a cab driver, you aren’t describing stress. Your job is hard labor. The difference is that you don’t have other people’s money riding on YOUR success. These big time managers don’t have the luxury to fuck up. If they fuck up once, it’s over for them. Yes they get paid a lot, but they get paid a lot because if they didn’t, nobody in their right mind would want to do it. It also takes decades of experience to become good at trading for a large hedge fund. Best of luck to you my friend. Another persons stress does not need to be downplayed just because they get paid more than you do.

      beswick1111 different kinds of stress. Yeah man it sucks but you gotta do what you gotta do. The grass is always greener on the other side. You have absolutely no idea what these guys go through. All you see if survivors bias. You see the ones who make millions and millions a year. You don’t see the ones who lose everything and have millions in debt. You couldn’t understand what these guys go through. Best of luck to you though. It really is honorable being a driver so know that at the very least, I do appreciate it.

    Investing in hedge funds by yourself can be risky due to their complex strategies, high fees, and potential for significant losses. Without expert knowledge, it's challenging to fully assess the risks and returns, making professional guidance crucial.

    • @jessicasquire

      Hedge funds can be tricky to navigate without deep financial expertise. The complex strategies and high fees involved mean that the risks can be substantial, and it’s hard to fully grasp these without experience. Professional guidance is key to making informed decisions and avoiding potential pitfalls.

      The comments emphasize the risks of investing in hedge funds without professional expertise. A financial adviser can help navigate these complexities, ensuring that investments are well-managed and aligned with financial goals. Their guidance is crucial for assessing risks, maximizing returns, and making the investment process more secure and personalized.

      ***** How can you be so sure that most investors for a startup hedge fund are from IT companies and generally younger? I know that there are quite a few activist hedge funds, and plenty of investors and speculators who need these high returns. If you get a good track record for a period of time, investors will want to invest in you. You could also show the investors a sound plan and strategy that might convince them that value is the right way to go. Plus activists can add value to companies by changing the management or helping them out in some way. I know that William Ackman had to go to hundreds of investors just to get a few who would actually invest in him, Paulson started off with only a few million or maybe a few hundred thousand, Loeb started with only three million.

      @COVID-19 Seattle Lol I don't think anyone would disagree that the hedge fund managers don't care about beating the index, they get rich either way taxing there investors, and the more money under management the more they earn, largely irrespective of returns. I would argue that they are motivated to produce very average results so as to ensure theres no outflow of funds, a pretty poor structure imo. The investors on the other hand are most definitely interested beating the index (or at least they should be). But hey, if you wanna aspire to be someone that taxes gullible investors to make yourself rich then more power to you.

How quickly we forget. I'm buying some bullion myself soon, expecting another bull market for gold in the coming years. That, or insane inflation which simply makes the gold worth way more by virtue of the inflation, unlike the dollars sitting in my bank account which won't grow one little bit when inflation hits us hard.

      Government bonds are interesting for big investors. Millions would upset a stock, and rapidly increase the price of that stock and closing your margin. With bonds you’re buying debt, and that doesn’t get upset by many millions.

      I think it that the amount of nerves u get when investing money doesnt get determined by the amount, but more of the part of ur money. When I started investing I firstly started with 10% of my money, and when I got to know the basics of it I investing all of my money (only 16yo btw so I dont have to pay bills etc) but when I did, I was only the first few days kinda worrieng but then I got used to it and didnt got trouble by that anymore.

      No, is actually the safest investment you can make. Gold is a physical thing but investing in private equity those are just numbers on a paper. Physical goods always come in a value and have a use for.

    • @19billdong96
      @19billdong96 8 лет назад +15

      Curtis I Equity is ownership of income generating businesses that typically owns a wide range of physical goods. The price of a stock does not always reflect its company's earning power, therefore its price doesn't always equal its value; but gold is almost solely priced by the whims of the traders and its value is identical to its price.
      Therefore, while the value of a stock will eventually be reflected in its price through reversion to the mean, gold prices can be arbitrary and is based on the traders' emotions not some underlying value.

      Yes you are right, building a long term portfolio is good. But there is no denying the fact that hedge fund managers can't only go for long term investments since they have to appease a diverse group of investors. Speculation if diligently done can keep the profits churning.

      It seems like you're all fools. Market make long term moves on fundamentals. You only trade to rebalance your individual holdings in your portfolio as macro/micro fundamentals change. Also, if you have so many long term positions, you significantly reduce your portfolio risk because many markets are correlated or inversely correlated.

    • @Harihar_Patel

      Being correlated increases risk, you want to own securities which are uncorrelated with each other to reduce the beta of the portfolio.

      Hedge funds dont trade like you guys who have 1 or 2 massive positions at a time. They trade with many traders who have diversified and hedged portfolio. So their risk is well reduced. So even if they lost money on gold, they only probably had couple % of their funds in gold anyway. You are not even in the same league comparing your knowledge of trading to them.
