“Since the dawn of the twentieth century, we have been told thatthe federal government has the answers to solve all of society’s problems.We have been promised, by supposedly serious men who havesworn an oath before God and man, that if we just give Washington,D.C., more of our money and more of our personal freedom, theproblems of poverty, illiteracy, racism, unemployment, crime, andcorruption will all be solved. Today, each and every one of theseproblems is worse than it has ever been. The federal government andits blood-sucking bureaucracies do not have a solution to the problem,they are the problem.”

“I strongly believe in the factthat there’s still plenty of money and plenty of private equity capitalavailable around the globe. What are in short supply are great entrepreneursand great teams. A trading opportunity or a company’s biggestchallenge is and has always been the team behind it. There’s enormouschange under way in every facet of the world. Some is technologydriven, some is market driven. All that change creates unprecedentedopportunity, but to take full advantage of such opportunities I mostlyfocus on the team. The right teams and right people behind thoseopportunities always win. There is no secret sauce. Trading and investinghas, in my experience, boiled down to building relationships andexchanging value. It consists of striking the right balance betweenbacking and interacting with the right teams with the right businessmodel at the right time and with the right amount of money.”

“Almost every Fed chairman in the past 60 years has manipulatedinterest rates to brighten the economic outlook for incumbent presidentsor newly elected presidents who won by large margins. Thepurchasing power of the U.S. dollar has fallen 94 percent in the past100 years. The only way you can create inflation is by creating moremoney that is backed by the same reserve assets; the Fed is the onlyentity that can create more money. Ben Bernanke’s quantitative easing(QE) programs have pumped billions of unfunded dollars into theeconomy, thereby setting us up for massive inflation in the very nearfuture. If this isn’t a form of financial terrorism, it is incompetence of the highest order.”

“A man with money is no match against a man on a mission. After all, money can’t buy you immortality.”
