that is easier said than done. if you have notions how to find an excellent investment manager let me know. it would seem like the ones who are really good will only do it for a short time . by then they have accumulated enough money to just do it for themselves. I would guess that 90% of the investment managers out there dont outperform the market over any length of time.
I dont think Mike Burry got a single reader of this thread to invest any money in his fund. On top of that many of the good ones buy into illiquid investments and you cant get out if you want or need to if there is a real market correction. then you run the risk assuming its a hedgefund. that they drop enough below the high water mark. that they just wrap that fund up and open a new one up. if they have a personal account for you, then you dont know if they are front running your stocks or not.

I have given this a fair amount of preliminary thought because if something were to happen to me no one of my family is capable of managing my investment/speculations.
