Incomes of Hedgefund Managers in 2006
Combined, the top 25 hedge fund managers earned $14 billion in 2006.
Mr. James Simons, the founder of Renaissance Technologies earned $1.7 billion.
Two other hedge fund managers, Kenneth C. Griffin and Edward S. Lampert, each took home more than $1 billion last year, with George Soros missing the hurdle by $50 million, according to an annual ranking of the top 25 hedge fund earners by Institutional Investor’s Alpha magazine.
Some view them as new-economy financiers, evoking the likes of John D. Rockefeller or John Pierpont Morgan as they provide liquidity to the markets and broadly diversify risks in the banking and financial systems.
