ilana: you have to be able to look pretty institutional out of the gate. days of two guys starting a fund with a bloomberg are over. you have to also show -- even big, bigger funds, we are going out of business. you also have to show that you can replicate something special about where you are coming from -- either running it away, which is consistent -- you have a track record that is maybe not correlated to the market, lower volatility, or there is something special. there are not many people i would say have this sort of secret sauce, where the belief is, you are sort of a better stock picker than most. if you look at the biggest launches this year, g1 and equity's -- exodus point, that was the bet, and it has been a tough year. they have a one-year track record. vonnie: we are out of time, but one word on compensation -- will it increase this year? ilana: it is pay for performance. that is what is great about this industry. vonnie: come back soon. we did not get enough at all from their perspective, but our thanks for the moment to the founder and pres
