The darling of the hedge fund world. It’s hard not to like this guy. He comes from a good family in the midwest. He started out young, with a modest investment ($900K) from his and his partner’s parents, and he’s an utter joy to be around in real life. He is a hotshot but he behaves like he’s not. He’s generated a 20% annualized return for his investors, is keen on announcing his short views on a podium (Lehman) and he has no shame in showing his love for the Mets. At one point he was set to buy a minority share but the deal fell through.
