right after that, we went up to papua, new guinea. i went with the ambassador and had just heard that i was going to be given another two years there. as i mentioned the other day to jill, australia is an idyllic assignment unless you're ambitious. it's left field. it's siberia, you don't want to be there if you're coming up for promotion and that type of thing. this is 1967 and '8. >> contrary to some revisionist interpretations, you were not with the cia in australia? >> no, i was not. >> okay. on the record. >> would he tell us if he was? >> i'd have to kill you. but there were actually 22 defense departments activities which i sort of oversaw. i didn't command anything. but in australia there were 22 d.o.d. activities. and we had about 600 american troops there. i was desperate if i had another two years down there, had to get out of there. when we got the new guinea, it was raining and we were confined to our motel, the ambassador and our party. and i read in the new guinea tok tok, which is their newspaper, all about this guy bo

. >> matthew was born in papua, new guinea. how would you like to have a fund that's in the top 1% over the past decade and the top 10% or so over the past year? you get that kind of performance, you got a winner there. let's talk a little bit about this idea that i think must be on your mind based on what you say of financial repression. the idea that investors can't make real returns in risk-free assets. >> it is a paradox today. there is no risk-free asset that offers a real return largely because in response to the fault lines that exist in the real economy we've resulted to monetary therapy to try to solve our problems but the problem with that is that for prudent long-term investor today, even out 0 a decade or beyond, you are looki locking in. and if the goal of investing is to grow your wealth in real terms, then it's a pa dox call situation. >> which is one of the reasons why you say money is corrupt, right? >> money has been corrupted and i think in an environment where money is corrupted you have to look for opportun
