In half afternoon, I went to google, typed "hedge fund", "soros", "griffin"...1000 link...doesn't take a lot of effort to get to the best success stories, there are 1000 sites dedicated to this topic...personally, my favourites are Soros and drunkmiller, mostly for their top-down strategies...

It seems most of these guys got started off their own backs. From what I've read most of them just started trading their own accounts and gained funds via word-of-mouth.
What do people reckon the chances are these days of someone similar starting their own fund without working in a big IB? Are the markets too sophisticated these days? (e.g. most of the now-famous hedge fund managers started trading in the 70's).
