Initials don’t help for an outsider like me, man. If I knew their initials I would know who these people were already….

 

Most of that 20 year track record was made during a very easy market regime from 2008-2021, of zero interest rates and low volatility, where going long growth-short value (anything) would have printed. 

Any dog, monkey, or slug could have been up huge during that period of time, so I would heavily discount any PM who claims to have "made bank" during that time period. Easiest market ever. My grandma was compounding DD %.
