It's okay...it will all be okay I guess
What is fxcked up is in my econometrics class:

It is divided between master's and PhD students. I am on the master's side though,

The PhD students are refusing to do the work whereas the master's students are turning in substandard work.

I'm pretty sure I'm the only one in the sociology program who actually does any work.

Most everyone in the program is retarded and/or doesn't give a shit.

I'm still confident that i will turn in a good paper, i just wont sleep much and might miss a few classes to get it finished and turned in by Friday.

I'm not sure if i will actually win the student paper comp, but you can be sure i will post about it if i do.

If anything gets me a GA it will be this project and knowing that is why i care so much.

I find it hard to believe I would find a forum with a better miz of people, however.

I don't think its really the people, as great as they are, its more the freedom to do and say whatever we want that makes this forum so great.

Most of the interwebz is too moderated and that doesn't bode well for my entertainment.

Someplace that offers all the great rewards associated with working in academia, but not all the hard work associated with being prominent in academia.

Whats a hedge fund?

A hedge fund is a private investment fund charging a performance fee and typically open to only a limited range of qualified investors. In the United States, hedge funds are open to accredited investors only. Because of this restriction, they are usually exempt from any direct regulation by the SEC, NASD and other regulatory bodies.
A hedge fund's activities are limited only by the contracts governing the particular fund, so they can follow complex investment strategies, being long or short assets and entering into futures, swaps and other derivative contracts. They often hedge their investments against adverse moves in equity and other markets, because a common objective is to generate returns that are not closely correlated to those of the broader financial markets.

In most countries hedge funds are prohibited from marketing to non-accredited investors, unlike regulated retail investment funds such as mutual funds and pension funds, and are essentially private pools of managed assets. Because of this they have little incentive to release their private information to the public, and have acquired a corresponding reputation for secrecy.

Since hedge fund assets can run into many billions of dollars, and thus their sway over markets—whether they succeed or fail—is potentially substantial, there is a continuing debate over whether further regulation is required.
