Jim Simons secret sauce….

“My algorithm has always been: you get smart people together and you give them a lot of freedom. “

“One has to recognize that luck plays a meaningful role in everyone’s lives. You get born to decent parents in a good part of the world, and you’re way ahead of the game. In my case, I was lucky to collaborate with some very good people when I was doing mathematics. I was also lucky in my choice of partners at Renaissance.”

Sounds a lot like Warren Buffett’s algorithm for success.
