A retired banking friend of mine (used to be my boss) created a private investment fund and has traders who invest on behalf of his investors. Another telco C-level went into his own venture capital firm and predominantly invests in areas he has absolutely no knowledge in (i.e. biology, pharmacy, chemistry - but he is willing to learn about these fields).

In both cases it was all about who they knew, how to raise funds, and who to trust rather than what specifically they knew regarding subject matter expertise.
