"I believe that within two to five years we'll have a crisis of equal or greater magnitude of what we just went through," Rodriguez reportedly told Fortune. "And it will emanate from the federal level."

The piece highlights Rodriguez's Los Angeles childhood in an immigrant household (with a father who refused to teach him Spanish), his industry beginnings as an analyst at Transamerica, his isolated home in Lake Tahoe, and of course his stock-picking prowess.
