The 86-year-old math genius who built the greatest quantitative hedge fund outperforming Warren Buffet

This is Jim Simons, the math professor who outperformed the WallStreet.

This is Jim Simons: an 86-year-old math genius who built the greatest quantitative hedge fund outperforming Warren Buffet, George Soros, Carl Icahn, and every investor who ever lived 😳

Jim's story was wild.

At 40, Jim Simons left a famed math career to launch the most successful hedge fund ever: Renaissance Tech.

This fund earned more than $100 billion for its investors.

Jim Simons's Medallion fund has had unreasonably high annual returns of 66% across 30 years 🤯

For the perspective, Buffet clocked in at about 20% per year.

Before passing away, Simons was worth over $31 billion and his secret was dead simple:

• He wanted to smoke everywhere.
• He walked around the office barefoot.
• He fell asleep at presentations.

The lesson: cold showers and meditating won't make you rich.

The real secret to wealth is just focusing on your thing and the freedom to be unapologetically yourself.

True legend.
