“As a traditional ensemble firm with over 20 years in the business, we could afford to bring on our own employees, but then we’d have to find the right people, make sure they were trained and had the right systems, supervise them, manage the human aspects that come with that type of a working relationship, create an investment committee, and more. Frankly, I don’t want the headaches that come with more people and systems.”
