I Snuck Into Jim Simons’ Office and Copied His Trades (Almost Got Caught)

Hi, I’m Sezia Glow and today I’m going to do something crazy. I’m going to sneak into the office of Jim Simons, the legendary billionaire hedge fund manager, and copy his trades for a day. Why? Because I want to learn from the best and see if I can make some money in the stock market.🤑

Alright, let’s get started. Jim Simons is the founder of Renaissance Technologies, one of the most secretive and successful hedge funds in history. He is known for using complex mathematical models and algorithms to find patterns and anomalies in the market. His fund has returned an average of 66% per year since 1988, making him one of the richest people in the world.😮

But he is also very private and secretive. He rarely gives interviews or reveals his trading strategies. His office is located in a secluded campus in Long Island, New York, surrounded by high fences and security cameras. No one knows what goes on inside, except for a few trusted employees who have signed strict non-disclosure agreements.😶

So how am I going to sneak in? Well, I have a plan. I have a friend who works as a delivery driver for a catering company that supplies food to Renaissance Technologies. He agreed to help me out for a small fee. He will let me hide in his truck and sneak me into the campus when he delivers lunch. Then I will find Jim Simons’ office and copy his trades using my laptop and a hidden camera. Sounds easy, right?😉

Well, not really. There are a lot of risks involved. First of all, I could get caught by security or by Jim Simons himself. That would be very bad. I could get arrested, sued, or worse. Second, I could lose money by copying his trades. Jim Simons is a genius, but he is also very unpredictable. He could change his mind at any moment or use some secret signals that I don’t understand. Third, I could miss out on some important information or news that could affect the market. Jim Simons has access to a lot of data and resources that I don’t have. He could see something that I can’t see and act accordingly.

But hey, no risk no reward, right? I’m willing to take the chance for the sake of learning and entertainment. And maybe, just maybe, I could make some money too. Who knows? Maybe I could become the next Jim Simons.😎

So without further ado, let’s go.

I’m in the truck with my friend, who we’ll call Dave for privacy reasons. He is driving towards the campus of Renaissance Technologies. He tells me to stay low and quiet until we get there.

“Are you sure you want to do this?” he asks me nervously.

“Of course,” I say confidently.

“This is crazy,” he says.

“It’s also fun,” I say.

He shakes his head and says nothing.

We arrive at the gate of the campus. Dave shows his ID and says he has a delivery for building A. The guard waves us through.

“OK, we’re in,” Dave says.

“Nice,” I say.

He drives towards building A, which is a large white structure with tinted windows.

“Jim Simons’ office is on the third floor,” Dave says.

“How do you know?” I ask.

“I’ve seen him go there a few times,” Dave says.

“OK,” I say.

He parks near the entrance and gets out of the truck.

“I’ll be back in 15 minutes,” he says.

“OK,” I say.

He grabs a cart with some boxes of food and heads inside.

I wait until he is gone and then get out of the truck too.

I look around and see no one.

I grab my backpack with my laptop and camera and follow him inside.

I’m inside building A.

It’s very quiet and clean.

There are no signs or labels on the doors or walls.

I guess they don’t want anyone to know what they are doing here.

I take out my camera and turn it on.

I start recording everything.

I walk towards the elevator and press the button for the third floor.

The elevator arrives and opens its doors.

I step inside and press the button again.

The doors close and the elevator starts moving up.

I feel nervous but excited.

I’m about to see Jim Simons’ office.

The elevator stops and opens its doors again.

I step out and look around.

I see a long corridor with several doors on both sides.

I don’t know which one is Jim Simons’ office.

I decide to try my luck and pick a random door.

I walk towards it and try to open it.

It’s locked.

I try another one.

It’s locked too.

I try a third one.

It’s unlocked.

I open it and peek inside.

I see a large desk with a computer and several monitors on it.

There are also some papers, books, and charts on the desk.

There is a window behind the desk with a view of the campus.

There is no one in the room.

I think I found it.

I think I found Jim Simons’ office.😍

I enter the room and close the door behind me.

I walk towards the desk and look at the computer.

It’s on, but it has a password screen on it.

I can’t access it.

I look at the monitors.

They show different charts and graphs of the market.

They also show some numbers and symbols that I don’t understand.

They look like some kind of code or algorithm.🤔

I look at the papers, books, and charts on the desk.

They are mostly about math, physics, and statistics.🧮

Some of them have handwritten notes and calculations on them.✏️

They look very complex and advanced.🤯

I can’t make sense of them either.😕

I realize that Jim Simons is way out of my league.😅

He is using some secret methods and formulas that only he and his team know.😮

There is no way I can copy his trades by just looking at his screens or papers.😞

I need to find another way.😏

I take out my laptop and turn it on.

I connect it to my camera and start streaming live to my YouTube channel.🎥

“Hey guys, it’s Sezia Glow here, and I’m in Jim Simons’ office right now,” I say to my viewers. “Can you believe it? I snuck into his office and I’m going to copy his trades for a day.”

I show them around the room and point out the computer, monitors, papers, books, and charts.👉

“This is where he makes his magic happen,” I say. “This is where he makes billions of dollars by using math and algorithms to beat the market.”

I check the comments section and see that people are going crazy.😱

They are sending me messages of support, admiration, curiosity, disbelief, and envy.💬

Some of them are asking me questions, such as:

How did you get in?

What are you going to do?

How much money do you have?

What are you going to trade?

How are you going to copy his trades?

I answer some of them as best as I can.🗣️

“I got in by hiding in a delivery truck,” I say. “I’m going to trade stocks using my laptop. I have $10,000 in my account. I’m going to copy his trades by using this.”

I show them a device that looks like a small microphone with a clip on it.🎤

“This is a wireless audio transmitter,” I say. “It can pick up sounds from up to 10 meters away. I’m going to clip it to Jim Simons’ phone when he comes back to his office. Then I’ll be able to hear what he says and who he talks to. Maybe he’ll reveal some of his trading secrets or tips.”

I check the comments section again and see that people are impressed by my plan.😊

They are sending me messages of praise, encouragement, excitement, anticipation, and curiosity.💬

Some of them are saying things like:

You’re awesome!

You’re brave!

You’re smart!

You’re crazy!

You’re genius!

“Thank you guys for your support,” I say. “You’re the best.”

I wait for Jim Simons to come back to his office.

According to Dave, he usually comes back around 1 pm after having lunch with his team.

It’s 12:45 pm now.

He should be here soon.

I hide behind a bookshelf near the door and watch the corridor through a gap between the books.👀

I see some people walking by, but none of them is Jim Simons.

They are mostly young men and women wearing casual clothes and carrying laptops or tablets.👩‍💻👨‍💻

They look like nerds or geeks.🤓

They must be some of Jim Simons’ employees or researchers.👩‍🔬👨‍

I wait for another 15 minutes.

It’s 1 pm now.

He should be here any minute.

I check my camera and laptop and make sure they are working properly.👌

I check the comments section and see that people are still watching and waiting with me.💬

They are sending me messages of impatience, anxiety, curiosity, and excitement.💬

Some of them are saying things like:

Where is he?

Hurry up!

Come on!

Show us!

We’re ready!

“Me too, guys, me too,” I say. “He’ll be here soon. I can feel it.”

I look at the corridor again and see someone coming.

It’s a man wearing a suit and a tie.👔

He has gray hair and a beard.👴

He is carrying a briefcase.💼

He looks familiar.

It’s him.

It’s Jim Simons.😲

He walks towards his office and stops at the door.

He takes out a key and unlocks it.

He opens it and enters.

I see him through the gap between the books.

He walks towards his desk and puts his briefcase on it.

He sits down and turns on his computer.

He types in his password and logs in.

He looks at his monitors and starts working.👩‍💻

He doesn’t notice me or my camera.😎

This is my chance.😏

I wait for a few seconds until he is focused on his screens.

Then I sneak out from behind the bookshelf and approach him quietly.👣

I have the audio transmitter in my hand.

I’m ready to clip it to his phone.🎤

I’m almost there.

I’m just a few steps away from him.

I reach out my hand and…

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!🚨

A loud alarm goes off in the room.

It startles me and Jim Simons.

We both look up and see a red light flashing on the ceiling.🚨

We also hear a voice coming from a speaker.🔊

“Security breach detected in building A, third floor, room 307,” the voice says. “Security breach detected in building A, third floor, room 307.”

Jim Simons looks at me and sees me holding the audio transmitter.

He realizes what I’m trying to do.

He jumps up from his chair and grabs his phone.📱

“Who are you?” he shouts angrily. “What are you doing here?”

I panic and drop the audio transmitter.

I turn around and run towards the door.🏃‍♀️

I try to open it but it’s locked.

The alarm must have triggered it.

I’m trapped.😱

Jim Simons follows me and tries to grab me.👋

“Stop!” he yells. “You’re under arrest!”

I dodge his hand and kick him in the shin.🦵

He groans in pain and falls to the floor.😫

I look for another way out.

I see a window behind his desk.

Maybe I can break it and escape.💥

I run towards it and pick up a chair.🪑

I swing it at the window with all my strength.💪

The window shatters and glass flies everywhere.🌠

I drop the chair and jump through the window.🕊️

I’m outside.

I land on a patch of grass below the window.🌱

It hurts but I don’t care.

I get up and start running away from the building.🏃‍♀️

I hear sirens and see flashing lights behind me.🚓🚨

They are coming for me.

They know I’m here.

They want to catch me.

But I won’t let them.

I’m not going down without a fight.😤

That’s all for now, folks.😉

Will I make it out alive?😬

Will I get caught by security or by Jim Simons?😨

Will I ever copy his trades?😔

And remember, always follow your dreams, no matter how crazy they are!😊

Peace out!✌️
