But Gillian, have you ever been tempted to try and take over the endowment yourself?

I'm very keen to see what a Gillian Tech portfolio might look like.

What do you think your day trading style would be?

Okay, Toby, I know you came across quite a large number of other brainiacs and brilliant people when you were doing research.

We don't have detailed data for all of them, unfortunately.

But let's do a quick roundup of some of the others of the historical heavyweights you looked at.

The one I was keen to hear about was Albert Einstein.

I mean, he probably must have been a brilliant investor.

Was he sort of a slave to his emotions, just like Isaac Newton?

She didn't get Churchill-like advances.

No.

What about other brilliant scientists then?

You know, the quants of the world, like Marie Curie.

Was she any good?

Do we know anything about her?

I mean, I get that.

Okay, so let's turn to the final discussion.

I mean, we asked, do brainiacs, do brilliant people, do beautiful minds make great investors?

And well, it seems anecdotally from the people we looked at that the answer is meh.

They don't really, right?
