Compounding Chef combines a business education background with professional experience in a variety of industries to find opportunities across the investing universe including… Media, Marketing, and Public Relations Travel, Tourism, Hospitality, Corporate Events, and Software as a Service. I have been managing the growth of personal and family assets for 15 years with the goal of building wealth that compounds for multiple generations. While I occasionally find short term opportunities in undervalued assets or special situations, I make an investment with the intent to buy and hold for 10 years or longer. I believe in the power of letting one’s winning ideas compound for years by… Reinvesting the growing dividends from well managed organizations, balancing current income with sustainable growth, seeking opportunities with substantial margin of safety and a wide moat, and taking advantage of short term fear to buy great assets at fair prices. My best ideas have been in REITs and dividend growth stocks, combining fundamental analysis with reasonable expectations of future cash flows. I do not seek to get rich quickly but build wealth that lasts. As a general rule for asset location, I look to hold dividend growth stocks in a taxable brokerage account and I use a Roth IRA for REIT and BDC investments.
