Inspired by @bluff_capital, here's about 50% of my portfolio:

- $AMZN - Customer for 22 years, The Everything Store opened my eyes to it, invested right after Brexit

- $LBRDA, h/t to #Fintwit, esp. @FrancoOlivera and @willis_cap

- $PGR, h/t @FocusedCompound, $GEOFF

(1/x)

- $ODFL, stumbled into on my own, love @vanckzhu explanation

- $CNSWF, invested after reading ML's President Letter's in my mid-20s, still have my $TOITF dividend, haven't added, but expect to over the years

- $PAR, I know Brink from having owned / operated restaurants,

(2/x)

followed @SavneetS since @coventurevc and invested immediately after reading his investor letter

Another 30-35% of the portfolio is spread across 7 names

And the balance are about 14 'tracker positions' (1-2% at cost) that I use to bet on stuff

(3/x)

where;

- The valuation is tough to justify (not impossible, I hope!)

- I haven't done the research (not my full time job anymore)

- I can't do the research (three international businesses, lack domain experience / expertise)

(4/x)

- Bigger range of outcomes than my 5/10% positions. h/t @bradsling and Co. for their RESILIENT / OPTIONAL dichotomy

If I tweet about it, I own it for the most part

I'm still trying to write up names on my Substack that are interesting to me,

(5/x)

but only spend about 5-10 hours per week

Hope to publish on $TTWO in a few weeks

and will try to tackle $CDNS next, although I've tried and failed before 🙃
