well for the sake of 1000 USD. For allot of people that is throw away money. Secondly if you study the Madoff case, you could smell that a mile off, and Madoff was a hedge fund no a fund of fund. But my point is the day a hedge fund is its one prime broker, you know things are just plain wrong. Madoff was not about deceiving people, it was about knowing the right people in high places and greed that was impossible to satisfy. He cleaned up and anybody who agreed to his terms after doing their "dudiligence " has got nobody to blame themselves. The funds we invest in have made incredible returns and they have offered to accommodate clients to review their accounts and visit their offices. I dont think it is the most appropriate time to raise finance, but this is just for people who are interested, or acquainted with current investors.
