"For many, the dream of running a hedge fund is realized once they move beyond the bounds of cocktail party chatter and investigate for themselves what is required to set up a hedge fund. Luckily for Main Street, the answers from Wall Street are amazingly simple. Today, pretty much anyone with $15k or thereabouts can start a hedge fund. What money cannot buy is talent, courage and entrepreneurial drive." From ‘How to set up a Hedge Fund’ by Hannah Terhune
