Why do Harvard kids head to Wall Street?
That is a lot higher then I would have expected. Does this mean that top VC funds are making insane returns (>50%)?

From what I'm told, a good VC fund will roughly triple over the life of the fund (~ 10 years).

We're projected to generate a better return on money invested, but we invest much less money, so we're not likely to end up as rich as partners at a successful VC fund.
