Can you do this again but talk to me like a 10 year old? No joke - I understood 50% and now intrigued but lost

So this is my takeaway from a lay perspective: I have a fund that invests in rocks from my driveway. Many are saying that these rocks will be worth millions each in the coming years !! Based off that I’m giving my rock collection a valuation of $20 mil. And the fund could really use another $60 mil in financing to purchase more rocks. And it would be great if I could also get a personal loan with my stake in the fund as collateral so I can invest back into it and help get even more rocks !! Am I close ? Cause it sounds like these firms are leveraging billions off peanuts and are then forcing their execs to get in on the fun.

Deal is levered, the fund has a bridge loan for each investment, then there is a NAV loan, the co-invest is levered itself, and the LPs are levered. Its leverage on top of leverage

Don’t worry. While the wealth doesn’t trickle down, the losses certainly will.

As an auditor in the space, the worst thing I see is the underlying investments are not even cash flow positive. Everyone is just praying they can make a sale some time in the future.

That’s terrifying because it means these PE multi- millionaires are broke, and the billionaires are taking all of the wealth

I work for a mid-size alt credit shop. We have a fund that does GP financing and that’s 1-1.5x levered, we have another fund that provides leverage to funds that provide leverage. The amount of hats on top of hats on top of hats is insane.

As someone who does the IP/patent diligence on these deals, it’s fascinating. I have to sit on financing calls and am shocked how many targets are not growing or cash flow positive.

Great explainer: this is something that many people in the industry do not like to contemplate. But it is a harsh reality in NYC especially.
