Stanley Druckenmiller

Media-shy billionaire hedge fund manager Stanley Druckenmiller made headlines last Friday when he spoke with Bloomberg TV's Stephanie Ruhle about a "storm" he sees coming. 

Druckenmiller, who accurately called the housing crisis, sees another crisis coming due to entitlement transfers.

Basically, he thinks that the seniors in this country are stealing from the young and that could result in a crisis worse than in 2008. 

Druckenmiller is one of the best performing hedge fund managers of all time with only one down year. 

Now let's get to know him better. 

The 59-year-old hedge fund legend comes from middle class roots.

Stanley Freeman Druckenmiller was born on June 14, 1953 and grew up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. 

His father Stanley Thomas Druckenmiller worked at Du Pont in labor relations. 



He attended prep school in Richmond, Virginia.

Druckenmiller graduated from Collegiate School in 1971. 




He didn't go to an Ivy League like a lot of fund managers do.

Druckenmiller graduated magna cum laude with his bachelor's in English and economics from Bowdoin College in Maine in 1975.
