Fitzroy McLean

Personal description

Fitz is a West Point graduate and former Army Ranger and Special Operations Officer who served throughout Europe, Africa, and the Middle East. After his army days, he was recruited into the CIA’s Clandestine Service, where he earned his living running covert and paramilitary operations. His red, white, and blue upbringing had convinced him that he was working for the “Good Guys,” yet a nagging doubt of how “noble” his work really was and an unfortunate incident involving public nudity led to his departure. Fitz soon found himself in the ultimate arena of subterfuge, deceit, and deception: politics. It was during his stint on the national election stage that Fitz was struck with an epiphany: he didn’t believe in government at all, at least not the intrusive form of government espoused by his political sponsors. After politics, Fitz went on to earn a graduate degree from Oxford, then headed off for the emerging markets of Africa, Eastern Europe, South America, and the Middle East, first as an entrepreneur and later as a fund manager. His emerging-market fund earned over 30% annually before being absorbed by one of the world’s largest sovereign wealth funds. Fitz, proud of his political incorrectness, is a self-described Libertarian with anarchist and hedonist tendencies. He’s not an angry expat, “America Basher,” or any kind of basher at all. He still loves America, if not its government, and firmly believes in the ideas advanced by the US founding fathers. While scouring the globe for profitable investments, he is always in search of a small, isolated place where he can found Fitzmcleanastan.
