In Search of After-Tax returns

Least successful hedge fund launch of 2011

4/11/2011

From FinAlternatives:
A Connecticut man has been arrested for trying to start a hedge fund—five cents at a time.

Police in West Hartford said that Brent Goggins was “going door-to-door collecting cans because he was using them to get money to start a hedge fund.” Unsurprisingly, the people of Fenwood and Exeter avenues and Carol Road were suspicious, and alerted police.

Goggins, 32, was charged with soliciting without a permit. It’s not his first run-in with the law; he pleaded guilty to resisting arrest in 2007.

Speaking of resisting arrest, Goggins’ collar came with a bonus for law enforcement: He was knocking on doors with one Charles Cravish. Cravish, it turns out, is a fugitive, having been charged with resisting arrest in Florida.

Goggins was released on $100 bond, posted by his girlfriend despite the fact that Goggins and Cravish were using her car for their caper and got it towed. Cravish faces extradition to Florida.

A tongue-in-cheek article on the insider trading FBI investigation:

Bloomberg: What does this crisis mean for the industry? We already can guess the first question that must have leaped to the mind of every self-respecting wealth maximizer: “How can I use this information to make enough money to buy myself a jet?” The answer, of course, is that it pays to be on the inside.

"Hedge-Fund Man", author Michael Lewis's alter ego is always good for a laugh:

Anyone who runs several billion dollars of other people’s money, and one hundred million of his own, is likely to have moments of self-doubt. I don’t recall experiencing any myself, but I concede that others have.
