Hedge Funds, Alternative Investments, Money Management, Risk Management.

You definitely understand this environment. You have created wealth, you have become a very high net worth individual. You have net financial assets of at least US$20 million excluding your primary residence and consumables. You definitely like hedge funds and alternative investments.

You know how difficult it is to make money, and how easy it is to lose whatever you have. And, you worry about the people you love, your children. An unprecedented amount of wealth will be passed on to a new generation. You spend a lot of time and energy managing your money, and even if you have the time and energy to educate your children yourself, it is very difficult. You have understood that it is almost impossible for parents to educate their own children.

There are some classes around the world for the children of the very high net worth individuals. Some of these classes are good, but there are at least 3 important problems:

A. No confidentiality. You may become a case study.

B. The class is for the "average child of the high net worth individuals". Not for your child. You have no way to influence the content of the course. Your family values may be very different from the values of the other families and the instructors.

C. You have to send your child somewhere for this class, and you don't like this idea.

We have a different approach: We believe in One-on-One Training. We know that you are unique, your values are unique, your portfolio and investments are unique, your children are unique. Customized, individualized, and hands-on, one-on-one training is ideal for your children. You will choose the modules that are suitable for them.

We will sign a confidentiality agreement and nobody will learn from us something about your business or your family. You will neither become a case study nor a report.

2. Challenges for Young Investors

25 challenges per year

We will be in touch with our students every two weeks

We will discuss hedge fund strategies, risks and opportunities. We will learn to investigate, to use fundamentals and technical analysis, and make decisions.

Each student will choose stocks and securities, building a virtual portfolio. He/she will take advantage of products like spread betting and contracts for differences.

We will discuss current opportunities from the London Stock Exchange. We will evaluate our decisions every two weeks and we will learn from our mistakes.

We will also learn how hedge fund managers sell short and use leverage, in order to exploit opportunities. We will analyze the risks involved.

We will make investments interesting, funny, challenging. We will start from what young people like - to win - and we will travel with them through a magic virtual world full of risks and opportunities.
