Especially all those greedy hedge fund investors. They all know well enough that the reason returns
are so high is due to high risk. You spends your money and you takes your chances!

It's a lot more complicated than that. Hedge funds are just final place for equity CDOs.
If anyone should loose its the hedge fund managers, but fund managers never do. They had 5+ years of kick *** performance bonuses and I don't think any of them are hurting.

Oh bullsh*t Ross. Anything above the risk free rate is delivering a premium return because of
potential risk associated with it.If you are investing exclusively in high risk investments without balancing the portfolio with more stable low risk vehicles then you get what you deserve. High risk CDOs are just another vehicle to try and make obscene returns and if you're playing with those type of investments you need to be prepared to lose.There are plenty of lower risk CDOs that many of the hedge funds ignored in the quest for a quick return.

So fund managers should be able totally f@ck up managing their funds arbitrage?
Hedge funds are like the wild wild west, and secondly since most of us don't even have the type of assets or liquidity to even invest directly into hedges, it's not like they were blind going into or more importantly diversified.
Also when has a hedge fund ever been bailed out by the government?
There is fault to be placed on everyone one from in the chain from the bottom to the top, that was my point.
