Old School Paul Tudor Jones

By


Trader: The Documentary, which Jones requested be pulled out of circulation at some point in the 90s (and bought up all the remaining copies he could find), is now available in 7 parts on YouTube. Take the next hour to watch a 32 year old PTJ get psyched over a $5 million day, chill with a huge turkey who he think of as a pet dog, discuss his start as “a glorified secretary,” trade while kicking back with some Buds, use a huge ass cell phone and put it out there that “if I make the mark I want to make, I’ll stop, I’ll retire.” (No word on whether he’s yet to achieve that mark or if it had to be reset when he decided to start funding the greatest show on earth, which will cost you.)
