About me:
I have served as a consultant and sub-advisor to hedge funds and advised on technology micro-cap and special situations portfolios. I've also served as a troubleshooter for venture funds, helping Internet companies to optimize their business models, develop strategies, build key strategic partnerships and raise capital. I'm currently on the Board of Workstream (WSTM) and Kintera (KNTA).
Why I joined:
A few years ago I became intrigued by a system of investing that was permanently out of favor on Wall Street. This system fully harnesses the Law of Compounding to make money in the fastest and safest way possible. Financial luminaries like Jane Quinn, David Swensen, Burton Malkiel and John Bogle all used aspects of the same investment system. So did Yale, Harvard, Stanford and Princeton. I realized that you don't have to be a genius-and you certainly have to avoid Wall Street-to make money the way financial masters have done it for decades. I decided to expose The System, build a vibrant investment community around it, and help people protect their nesteggs from harm.

Richard's Sector Boosted Portfolio [Copy this portfolio]
My friend Richard is a physicist who models asset allocation both from a strategic and a tactical model. I just had breakfast with him and here is a rough idea of how he's managing his own money. I'll be updating this as he gives me feedback, but he likes to boost returns by making long term bets on sectors.

My friend Rob is one smart guy. He thinks that the US dollar is going to be continually devalued over the next few years while the rest of the world will experience rapid inflation relative to the US dollar in order to create "liquidity."
