Yes, you can make serious $$$ from being involved in chess.
Cool video. Thanks for sharing it!
(Though I’d note in passing that running a hedge fund might return serious $$$ - at least to the manager(s) - it also might not. Witness the advice of the Motley Fool, “Around 9% of hedge funds go out of business each year – three or four times the rate for mutual funds. Returns of dead hedge funds are dropped politely from industry performance databases – painting a too-rosy view of hedge fund performance.” fool.com/investing/general/2 … zards.aspx But still here’s hoping, and a really good story about how chess can be the starting point for other relationships.)
