Meet The Super-Rich Hedge Funder Whose 17-Year Old Daughter Hooked Up With Jets QB Mark Sanchez

This is a story about how being really wealthy seems awesome, but it's also an enormous burden. Instantly, the media considers whatever trivial problem you're having important.

Exhibit A: Eliza Kruger. Her dad is Connecticut hedge funder Konrad "Chip" Kruger.
Exhibit B: Mark Sanchez
Mark Sanchez hooked up with 17-year old Eliza, and now their story is all over the internet, probably entirely thanks to Eliza, who seems to have not-so-craftily planted the story in Deadspin because hooking up with Mark Sanchez is huge for anyone, let alone a 17-year old girl. Making the story even hotter news, Eliza's dad is filthy rich. A google search on him pulls up tons of impressive business and charity ventures.
