Finding investors to start a hedge fund

  1. 100% compounded 5 years will give 1600% return
    200% compounded 5 years will give 3200% return

    So 5 years will be enough for a decent start. Even 3 or 4 years will do.
    In 5 years a few countries might change very much. Like Russia with the actual energy prices and the rouble tumbling.

  3. I am working with several Siberian oligarch's presently--- these guys are demanding secure, ultra-high returns that are extremely difficult to source in the current environment

    -- so the Ukraine comment makes sense right now--- legit stuff in the States just isn't very attractive to these types--

    WTF can demand, secure, "ultra-high" returns? Dude, you sound like such a nose-bleed.

  6. You never heard of investors demanding the impossible??

    The idea of an oligarch would essentially preclude such a demand. LIBOR safety and Keno returns, eh? My point is that I find it about as likely as Jim Nestle not sharing your DNA.

    They can't demand the impossible from everybody. ;-)

  9. You have no clue. They are looking to diversify into the US but still have outsized demands. Just because someone made billion in the coal mining business ( just an example) does not mean they understand how other investments work. Its a slow educational process--

  10. you should show these oligarchs the surf report so they can really educate themselves on who they're dealing with ;)
