An indepth vew into Hedge Fund managers
What did you love best about Hedge Fund Market Wizards?
I like the question and answer format of the writing. Instead of an overlaid narrative (which there was some) the questions probed deeper in the theories behind why certain managers made the decisions they did. Also, moving from one subject to the next allowed for you to observe contrasts between the managers. No one style or investment process was favored in the book. It seemed as the writer wanted to illustrate the fact that there was no one key strategy that lead to success but there was underlying traits in each manager that was common to success.
What other book might you compare Hedge Fund Market Wizards to and why?
I would say the book 'Quants' by Scott Patterson. It tells a similar story and the characters are the same so you almost feel familar with them.

Somewhat entertaining
Do the wizards interviewed have skill, or are they just lucky? We'll never know unless the author does a followup study a couple of decades from now. In either case, very little information presented in the book will help the average trader.

Great audiobook for anyone interested in trading
Jack Schwager has an immense talent for interviewing successful people and distilling the lessons for the rest of us. Excellent choice of traders, Breadth of trading styles, and topics/questions - truly something for everyone.
The narrator helps the listener through the interviews by changing his tone and speaking style; the voice for Jack is consistent, and the voice of the interviewee changes, presumably to match the style of the actual person's voice. There are a few awkward mid phrase pauses here and there, but overall great presentation.

Interview Transcripts
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
This book is just a transcript of several interviews. Thank goodness the people being interviewed have lively stories. The book literaly says Hello Mr X. Tell me about x..... then a response, then a question, and on and on. Not even an attempt at a story line. There are chapter summaries at the end of each chapter too with highlights. If you want to read this book, get the print versions and skip to the summaries. The rest is best for skimming only.
To make an audio version better, there would need to actually be a plot or story. Something that allowed the chapters to flow together and not be an anthology of interviews. There is no context to make me care about what these people say
What could Jack D. Schwager have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
Provide more background to market conditions, sense of common time and place, etc... The book Quants covered similar events in a much more enjoyable fashion. It had pace and urgency that an interview transcript really lacks.
Would you be willing to try another one of Clinton Wade’s performances?
Probably, he did well considering the format of the book.
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Hedge Fund Market Wizards?
There is no cohesion between chapters. Each chapter is like, meet Mr X. Mr X tell me about your investing strategy.... Q&A, Q&A, Q&A, over and over again. Difficult to listen to. Probably ok to skim read, but not for the car ride listen.

Narrator Will Put You to Sleep
As -a retired physician who now trades for a living, I find many of Jack Schwager's books to be very helpful and motivating. I think I own and have read them all.
That said, although the content of this book is very good and is true to Jack's exemplary contribution to this field, the narrator will put you to sleep. Even after speeding it up to 1.25x, the reader still sounded a big melancholic and was hard to listen to.
I may need to buy this book, because the Audible version is far to hypnotic to listen to without falling asleep.
Going to try 1.5x now... Maybe The Chipmunks will help put some 'pep' in this reading.
Otherwise... The content is good. Buy the (audio)book. Just be forewarned.
Take care.

Insights and Insights
Would you listen to Hedge Fund Market Wizards again? Why?
Yes. Just like all the Market Wizard books there is much insight that can be gained to help in trading.
What did you like best about this story?
The actionable ideas, the honesty of traders that had huge losses, and huge wins, and what they learned.
Any additional comments?
It was tough to determine at times (chapter 1 & 2) if he was asking the question or answering. Then in all the other chapters he changed is tone when asking questions and answering so it was more enjoyable.

Information
What I like are the different hedge fund managers interviewed. I had to google majority of the people which I liked because I got to learn about people and different investment strategies.
What I dislike: I didn't want to the book to end.
It is a must read I think.

It's a great book
It's a great book that really helps to open one's mind to a lot of trade opportunity's. This is helpful one one's quest to find their own trading style instead of replicating what others have done. Thank you Jack.

Trading can not be taught - it can only be learned
Dieses Buch hilft einem dabei seinen individuellen Anlagestil zu finden. Das heißt nicht Daytrader werden zu müssen oder zu sein, um dieses Buch interessant zu finden. Die erfolgreichsten Hedgfund Manager unserer Zeit scheinen ihr Handwerk vor allem dadurch gelernt zu haben, dass sie trotz herber Verluste nie aufgaben und es so lange wieder versucht haben bis sie erfolgreich wurden. Faszinierend.
