^^ = Erin Burnett
Jim Simons. I just read "The Quants", great book.
I think the answer to the "easy" one above is Cliff Asness, but I could be wrong. Seems to fit though, I know he used to be a part of Global Alpha.
I used to trade energy at Enron. That shit collapsed so I bailed to start my own gig with some buddies. Now I ball outrageous in Houston with one of the biggest hedge funds in Texas. My alma is Vandy.
The hard answer is not buffett, the guy I am talking about is a trader. He is famous for eating fruit, he brags about it all the time. (Startop, I think we are thinking about the same guy). Asness is right though for the easy one.
^^^ Is that the trader at CIti who got $100m in comp a few years ago?
Nope. He is the same guy that Startop is talking about. He runs his own Hedge Fund now.
Not Andrew Hall, it's John Arnold. Centaurus.
That's right, you got it.
Provided the above answer is correct.

I was fired from my Cotton Exchange trading job in New Orleans because I fell asleep. My fund defeated the Spanish Armada in 1588. I drink Bud at 4:30 in the morning and I was the "Wild as shit Arab"--last sentence is some inside information.

Gekko - Paul Tudor Jones, right?
Unless there's someone else drinking bud heavies at 4:30am trading and wreaking havoc on opec
I prefer PBR......
Tudor Jones is right.

I was a true king of the street; information was my tool and my greatest weapon. My closest rival and I had had no equals. Guiliani may have forced my fall from grace, but thank God my firm was safe.
That is really close....another hint.......The desk I ran is still around today and has become a HF manager breeding ground.
I am weightless, invisible, and if you put me in a barrel the barrel would become lighter.
