Rich-Bored-Unable to find a job because of Obama-Then tap into your inheritance & start a hedge fund

Has everyone seen today’s dispatch from the One Percent and their delusions of persecution? A recent college graduate is starting his own hedge fund, and he’s offering to job-create for some of his frat-bros:

After a series of summer internships, however, I have somehow found myself without a full-time job offer for the upcoming year. F***n’ Obama’s fault for strangling this economy.

With my financial expertise, help from my powerful father and connections, and a skilled team, I have no doubt that this fund will rise quickly to prominence. We’ll all get filthy rich and, inevitably, bag hot slampieces.






“slampieces”, for my fellow un-unenlightened olds, means women.
