Buy Cheap From Zero to Sixty on Hedge Funds and Private Equity 2.0: What They Do, How They Do It, and Why They Do The Mysterious Things They Do


From this book, you will get two things regarding hedge funds and private equity. Two things that anybody can take home.

The first is the knowledge - a foundation tool set of key words, industry phrases and financial concepts made clear in plain english. This book puts meanings and understanding to terms you may have already heard but did not quite understand. There is no math and there are no equations. Just interesting stories and detailed explanations to get you familiar with a variety of topics:

• How hedge and private equity funds are structured
• Who their investors are and what do they want?
• Fund investing strategies. Event-driven, arbitrage, sidepockets, and more
• Junk bonds, options, swaps, and other derivatives
• Leveraged buyouts and other types of private equity investing

The second thing you get makes this more than just a compilation of Wikipedia articles. Imagine yourself sitting next to a fund or an investor in a fund and observing them do something or make a move. Sure you want to know “what” they did but the stuff that would be truly interesting is the “why”. What is going through their head in doing this? This book walks you through it all so that you get to take in the mindsets, perspectives and incentives of the fund’s managers, investors and more. There is a whole lot more strategy going on than what you might at first think.

It does not matter who you are: A student in school thinking about joining the alternative asset management industry, a retiree who wants to know more about these weird fund things, or a person who works with or near a hedge fund but has no idea what they really do. Does not matter. The only thing you need to have is a desire to start learning. If you are familiar with some of it, you can build on it here. If you are beginning from scratch (just as I myself was), you are in good hands.

About 2.0:

2.0 builds on the first version of From Zero to Sixty to bring more clarity than ever to the issues surrounding hedge funds and private equity. We dive into insightful charts, read through managers’ investment presentation slides, and sift through SEC filings to immerse you deeper into the world. New stories are begun. Old ones are given that finishing touch. Real life examples. Real life data. Real life documents.

Despite the 2.0 moniker and the nice new cover, this book’s goal remains the same: Teach people about hedge funds and private equity and bring them up to speed on a fast-moving industry. This book is an education, a learning course set
up with you in mind. That has not changed.
