Building Blackstone has been the most consequential personal challenge of my lifetime. The firm has come a long way since Pete and I stood in the rain outside MIT. Today it is the world's largest manager of alternative assets. Conventional assets are cash, stocks, and bonds. The broad category of "alternatives"includes pretty much everything else. We build, buy, fix, and sell 2 companies and real estate. The companies we invest in employ more than 500,000 people, making Blackstone and its portfolio companies one of the largest US-based employers and one of the largest employers anywhere in the world. We findthe best hedge fund managers and give them money to invest.We also lend money to companies and invest in fixed-income securities.
