Politics as an exit opp?
Hey guys, I'm currently a principal at a PE MF, and although the comp is pretty nice, I'd like to try something else for a few years.
I was thinking of running for senator in my home country (Canada), serving a couple of terms (4-8 years I think) and then going back to PE/M&A with my newfound expertise, especially for industry specific groups.
I have a convention and prestigious background for a politician (Oxford PPE) as well as a HSW MBA. I have the rolodex to fill up my war chest or whatever politicians do to win a running.
I'm willing to fork over about 3-6MM (usd) to fuck around as a senator or congressman for the next few years.
Anybody in a similar situation or know of someone who has been in a similar situation who can provide expertise? I have no family members currently in politics, if that's a disadvantage.
not a single other person in this forum can relate lol. If that's truly your pedigree, you should easily be able to reach out to Politicians with similar backgrounds from your alma maters. But if you are able to pull it off, mad props.
He’s a troll, look at his post history
Senators don't serve terms in Canada, gtfo
