I’d bet it’s closer to 750-1,000k/year.

I know nothing of hedge funds. That said, how much revenue would she have to generate to justify this salary and how would a history degree give the ability to create a client base this large?

Thanks in advance.

Hedge funds tend to be very profitable because they charge very high fees to their clients (more so than mutual funds). Chelsea is a research analyst (i.e. picks stocks to invest in for the hedge fund) so she doesn’t actually source any clients... she just helps to manage their assets.

I based my math upon comparables that I know, and then figured that she is at the upper end of that range because she is working for Clinton supporters.
