I’ve been learning about successful entrepreneurs who happen to be investors—I call them “investor entrepreneurs.” I heard about Stanley Druckenmiller and have been learning about his journey as an investor.

Druckenmiller is a hedge fund manager, which I’m less familiar with. I’m still learning about that investing style and about hedge funds, but one thing has stood out to me from learning about Druckenmiller: there are many creative ways to deploy capital and achieve outsize returns. There’s no set path that all investors must follow. Some investors like to invest in what others might consider unorthodox ways, and they can still be successful. 

I’m excited to continue to learn more about Druckenmiller, his approach, and why he was successful.
