Why Don't Hedge Fund Managers Just Invest Their Own Money? - How Money Works #Shorts

If hedge fund managers are so good at investing, why do they need other people’s money?

There are no shortage of people out there offering amazing returns if you invest your money with them and a lot of them are outright scams.

Asking this question can potentially save you for falling for such scams, but in the case of hedge funds or any other investment firm there are three good reasons they get money from investors.

The first reason is that they might not be personally wealthy enough yet to invest into the type of deals they want to. Some private equity deals these days are in the billions.

The second reason is that they can still make more money like this. If someone can beat the market by just a few percent per year then they would make more money by charging a fee to a larger investor.

The final thing is that hedge fund managers do invest their own money. A lot of high profile investors are increasingly choosing to just manage their own money rather than dealing with the stress of demanding investors.

From what i understand the purpose of a hedge fund is to manage a portfolio with returns that are uncorrelated to the broader market, which these hedge funds can offer to wealthy people who are already heavily invested in the market and are looking for uncorrelated returns in order to hedge their investments, hence the name hedge fund. Hedge fund managers are not necessarily part of the people for which the service they offer is the most sensible option.

let's say you have 1 million dollars. You invest and make 20% a year on it. So you earn 200k a year. let's say you manage a very small fund of 200 million dollars. You collect 1% in management fee = 1 million dollars. Then you return 20% for your investors = 40 million dollars. Of the 40million, you charge 20% as your profit share = 8 million. As an individual with 1 million invested, your income = 200k. As a fund manager of a small fund of 200million, your income for this year = 1 mill + 8 mill = 9 mill. 200k vs 9mill. which would you rather? For the peasants here who think theyre smart because they watch movies about Wall Street, just remember you are part of the sheeple who never get it.

Better to make money on investments AND charge investors the usual 2 and 20 than to just rely on investments to make money.

The important question is if they are investing their money in the same place they invest your money. They will go as far to use client money to clear themselves of positions that they expect to do badly (and so does everybody else hence the difficulty selling them).

Hedge funds make money by investing in things your fiduciary can’t or won’t. They take high risk and get personally involved in ways that manipulate the outcomes of the things they invest in.. this is far apart from what any other managed fund will do or investment company.

It also depends on what you're after. Hedge funds aren't necessarily for outperforming the market. Lots of hedge funds also try to have returns while also not having the downturns the market has and balancing risks.

The first two reasons were pointless imo. They invest others people's money because other people aren't good at investing but want the benefits of investing so there is a demand for this service. They supply the demand and make money. Its very simple.
