10. Best hedge fund manager
Many consider managing hedge fund is not as promising as working for a big international company. So, it is not a popular option among both blue collar and white collar workers. Not to mention the risks the financial market offers.
George Soros has proven otherwise. Who would have thought, you can make hundreds of million dollars in a year from managing hedge fund?
His success has granted him the title of top 10 world’s best hedge fund managers. And with $25.2 billion in his pocket, he is the richest hedge fund manager in the US.
Back in 1990s, Soros shocked the world as he claimed to gain $1 billion as the British Pound struggled. He basically broke Bank of England through hedge fund. And his skill in reading the market fluctuation was also shown when he made profit from Brexit.
