Instructions for Execution
Equal Weight within Categories. Divide each category's allocation equally among its holdings.
Start with what you have. Even fifty dollars deployed is participation. Fractional shares are acceptable.
Add Consistently. Monthly contributions, however small, compound both wealth and voice.
Vote Every Proxy. Ownership without voice is mere speculation. Exercise the franchise.
Adapt to Conscience. If a holding violates your principles, exclude it and reallocate within the category.
"Own them. Vote them. Govern."
