Anyone remember Roger McNamee? He was the leading tech portfolio manager at T. Rowe Price during the 80s and early 90s. He hasn't given up on the tech stocks, but he has lots of other interests. He plays in a rock band, "MoonAlice", that includes one of my all time favorite musicians, Jack Cassady, bass player for Jefferson Airplane and Hot Tuna. There is life after mutual fund management. en.wikipedia.org
