Here's a preview of Intentional Investing - the second edition of my monthly newsletter - which is live now:

Read it here.

"Too many investors have the identical investment process. They do what everyone has done since time immemorial. Receive a pitch deck, have a non-decision maker review it, get a first meeting with a non-decision maker who has to second guess what a Partner is interested in. Then, if you are lucky, meet a Partner who is a decision-maker.

Because everybody does it, nobody thinks if their process is fit for purpose. Nobody thinks about what they want to achieve and how they might best achieve it.

Intentional Investing is just that. Know what you are trying to achieve and take a first principles approach to trying to achieve it."
