I like to invest in companies where I can really add value from my experience, network, etc., so checking out my portfolio of other investments, and my background, will generally give some guidance there.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I found an approach to investing that made enormous sense to me: rigorously analyzing a company's fundamentals, understanding exactly how it makes money, developing a view on the business's future prospects, and deciding if it's a good business.
I'm looking to expand my portfolio while I'm on top and while I'm young.
Buy into good, well-researched companies and then wait. Let's call it a sit-on-your-hands investment strategy.
I'm invested in about 13 private companies. I've advised probably another 50 private companies.
And what I'm interested in is investing in people.
My first objective is to invest, and if I have anything spare, then I spend.
I have invested in the stock market since I was very young.
I'm primarily just an investor.
Experience taught me a few things. One is to listen to your gut, no matter how good something sounds on paper. The second is that you're generally better off sticking with what you know. And the third is that sometimes your best investments are the ones you don't make.
I would suggest that you only take advice from those people who have a lot of experience and who you trust as well. Also, be extremely conservative with your investments.
