Investment Club
Categories: Investing, Managed Funds
Golf.
Aren’t most deals still done on the golf course? Even today? Well yeah, you’ve got your woods, your irons, your specialty club designed for hitting balls off tree limbs.
Now to an investment club. In the more traditional sense of the word, it's just like a knitting club, only instead of a collectively made blanket, the investment club collectively manages a portfolio, as they pool their assets into one vehicle, usually legally set up as one form or another of a partnership.
And the butt of many jokes follow. Like...a professional bowler, a priest, a shaman, and a rabbi all sit down to form an investment club and...oh, something about coming back in your next life as a bowling pin. We, uh…forget the punchline, but…great joke. You’ll have to trust us on this one.
The point being that investment clubs draw together all sorts of folks, from all sorts of backgrounds.
Why is that helpful? Because you can get investing insights and perspectives you might not have considered otherwise.
Maybe you’re grappling with the idea of investing in a company that makes ergonomic toilets. So you aren’t straining your lower back while you’re, uh…straining. Well, wouldn’t it be helpful to have someone who specializes in occupational medicine or ergonomics in your investment club? And...maybe a gastroenterologist, too?
So, because you’ve got all those disparate minds pooled together…you can make more informed decisions, and ultimately, hopefully make more bank as well.
So you can spend more time hitting balls out of trees. Or...however you like to spend your free time.
