Lots of hedge funds run on a 2% + 20% structure meaning that they get 2% of your investment up front and 20% of the annual returns. If he had a $100M AUM at the start, the initial 2% was $2m which likely went to operational costs, and at the end, the fund would have been close to $1B and his take would have been nearly $200M. Not bad??

Now I don't know what the AUM was, but $100M is a small hedge fund.
