Re:: Bill Miller Put 30% Of His Fund's Assets in BITCOIN : The Best Documentary Ever - The Bitcoin Phenomenon
Bill Miller had some real stinkers, like Bear Stearns mentioned in this article and, yes, Enron.
However he has beat the market for almost all of his career, and after being fired by Less Mason has continued to beat the market and put up great returns.
He used to call himself a value investor (maybe for marketing purposes) but he's just a stock picker and occasionally a speculator, and is supremely confident and optimistic at all times.
For those of you that are familiar with hedge fund manager Pabrai, it's a similar approach. Basically the pedal is always to the metal, and you get blown up every now and then but over the long run it actually works out if you stick to the bold picks.
