Hello @grazyeight I don't mind at all..
- London
- I'm an Oil Trader, so the investments were made from Trading Profits.
- Good point, this is something I missed out. I always look for companies who have exit in the back of their minds and show a clear pathway to an exit. Generally 5 year time horizon is what I'm looking for, however a longer time horizon doesn't scare me off. I am not investing in any start-ups with the foresight of holding for a prolonged period of time, and dividends are off little to no interest. My stakes are always minority holdings, and part of a larger investment round.
- I look to have very little involvement except where asked. I do offer opinions, however this is where management is key. I want management who are so on the ball, that they do not need any outside help except from industry experts. Strong vision and a level of self belief that will get them to the end goal...
Ditto on the sharing experiences.
