is it even possible to start a hedge fund these days?

Quote from MoneyWalks:

Now on a more serious note last thing to mention is that he was setting an offshore hedge fund, less expensive.

This is WRONG. Offshore Hedge Funds are more expensive to set up and to manage.

Which offshore locale is his fund located in if you know. I think the jurisdiction of the offshore country would make a small difference in expenses.

His corporation based in Panama, and as far as he told me the cost to startup the fund was about $10K in attorney but again anyone must make his/her own due diligence.

Gekko wasn't a trader, he was a criminal.
