A Few Possible Reasons Why Paul Tudor Jones Despises His Infamous Documentary, 'Trader'

Because he screams and swears.

Traders do this all the time, but it doesn't mean they want it on tape. Plus, the man's got kids. No one wants them to hear dad drop the F-Bomb.

Because he calls his own retirement.

This obviously never happened. Tudor says, "If I make the market I want to make I'll retire, hopefully a champion."

Now PTJ is a billionaire and definitely a champion. Maybe he realized that he wasn't going to retire after he hit his mark and wanted to erase this comment from history.

Because he gets a little smug sometimes and says things that aren't PC at all.

PTJ says: "I hope they think it was some wild as s--- Arab who knew the deal would fall apart."

Because he says the country hangs on a pair of tennis shoes.

"These tennis shoes are what the future of this country hangs on because they've been good for a point rally in bonds and a 30 point rally in stocks every time I put them on... I bought them at a charity auction. They're Bruce Willis', the man's a stud.
