Investing in Mavericks: Venture Capital in the Stock Market
5
6
This investing approach applies "Venture Capital Investing", but to the Public Markets.

In Short:
(1) We are looking for companies poised to become the best companies of our time. Think, Amazon or Netflix in the early days. Companies that, if successful, have the potential to 10X in 10 years or less.
(2) This approach really comes down to envisioning what the world MAY be like in the future, and investing in companies who can make that proposition a reality.
(3) We want these companies to be run by visionaries, and we will aim to own these stocks for long periods of time.

What's The Goal?
My goal is to outperform Index Funds over the long term, by striving to build portfolios that can double in 3-5 years.

What To Expect?
(1) This approach will likely result in many failed individual investments (just like Venture Capitalists experience), but I also believe this investing approach can be quite lucrative, if executed well, and patiently.
(2) We will use Coffee Can Portfolios to make our investments.

What Is A Coffee Can Portfolio?
The idea of a Coffee Can Portfolio is simple: You try to find the best stocks you can and let them sit for years. You incur no costs with such a portfolio, and it is simple to manage.
Note: The intention behind the Coffee Cans below is to own them for atleast 3-5 years.
