Louis Villa is a portfolio hedge fund manager sort of person with a serious problem. He couldn't stay at Talaris Capital for more than five minutes. And he couldn't stay at Edoma Partners for more than five minutes. Now he's gone over to SAC Capital Advisors. Dear oh dear. How long will that last? / Does poor Louis have a yearning for something unattainable?
I know how he feels. Well, I used to, but I've started to think that it may be attainable after all. / We all need to focus on what we truly want out of life. It's no good having a vague idea. Louis has a vague idea. 'I wouldn't mind being a portfolio manager here. No! I wouldn't mind being a portfolio manager over there.' Terrible. The truth is, poor Louis doesn't want to be a portfolio manager at all. (The vague idea doesn't even belong to him!) It was his parents who forced him into finance. (It's their very distinct idea.) Poor Louis wanted to be a ballerina. This man gave up his dream to keep his family happy!
I suppose I admire him, I don't know. It can't be easy. I think he needs to make some changes though. And I don't mean moving to yet another firm.
A lot of rain today, and I should know. It gets real close to me. I can't avoid it.
