John Arnold, a onetime natural gas trader at Enron Corp., became the highest-paid manager last year, earning between $1.5 billion and $2 billion, according to a poll. His Centaurus Energy is an energy hedge fund.
Some hedge fund traders are actually very young. One of my clients Dan Zwirn is only 35. The top earner John Arnold is even younger, only 33.
You can be rich and young, if you devoted to an investment banking career. Dan Zwirn was traveling on his private plane when I scheduled his interviews in Asia. Let’s take a look at his income and bio.
Here are the twin stars’ age and their estimated income:
John Arnold (33) - GBP 750 million – 1 billion
Dan Zwirn (35) – GBP 40-50 million
