CityBizList – After seeing his record 2007 payday shattered by David Tepper in 2009, John Paulson has reclaimed the title of highest-paid hedge fund manager.
The Paulson & Co. chief earned a whopping $4.9 billion in 2010, according to AR magazine’s annual Rich List. That topped both his own 2007 payday, $3.7 billion in a year when his hedge funds produced triple-digit returns betting against subprime mortgages, and Tepper’s $4 billion payday in 2009.
