I guess that counts me out.

What do you serve a libertarian for dinner? Hedge fund manager Mark Spitznagel has until March 20th to figure it out—that’s when he’ll host a $2,500-per-plate fundraising dinner for U.S. presidential candidate Ron Paul.

Spitznagel, the founder and CIO of Universa Investments, will host the dinner at his Los Angeles home, according to TheWrap.

Paul’s fellow speaker at the event will be Nassim Taleb, author of “The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable,” a book which has had a strong influence on Spitznagel’s investment strategies. Spitznagel, known for his value- and derivatives-based stock market investing, made a killing during the 2008 financial crisis, having essentially bet on the crash.
