Is there a difference between the two? In addition: http://www.bivio.com/index.html Is opening an account here the same as opening a hedge fund or an investment partnership? I know Warren Buffett began before Berkshire Hathaway the Buffett Partnership, is what is shown on this website similar?

Every website about hedge funds seems to want to sell me a fund or tell me how great their company is. Is there a site that explains hedge funds without a sales pitch?

Is it a Finance major? Or an MBA with a focus on Finance? Or something else?

You contact investors that want to invest in your fund.
The first question they will ask is “What’s your track record”?
Then, “what’s your strategy”?
“Who did you work for”?
“How much do you have in this”?
The gist of it being, if you don’t have a track record, or never worked at a hedge fund, you’re going to find it very difficult to attract investors, especially since there are about 6000 hedge funds out there (maybe less given today’s market environment) that DO have experience.
I’m not saying that you couldn’t do as well as an experienced trader, I’m just saying it’s going to be hard to sell someone when you don’t have a track record. Those that have worked at hedge funds and have gone out on their own can usually cull a few sheep from the old herd to start a new fund, because there’s already a relationship.
Why does it have to be millions? You could start with just a mill. As long as you produce, the additional money will follow.
