According to philosopher Immanuel Kant, a Maxim is a subjective principle or rule that the will of an individual uses in making a decision. As such and in part, below are a few of the Maxims which your managing partner of the Fund uses in consideration while investigating an idea and prior to placing our capital in promotion of that idea.

• Detach yourself from the crowd — (Do not be a lemming)
• Losses must always be “cut”, if facts change — (No falling knives)
• What man wishes, that too will be what he believes — (Avoid Overoptimism)
• Focus sharpens returns, concentrate best ideas — (Do not want to be average)
• And with limited loss, become speculative, bet big — (Watch the basket closely)
• Do not anchor on what you have, investigate — (Do not “Satisfice”)
• Always search for disconfirming evidence — (Always invert)
• Challenge your best idea, destroy it if you can — (Idea competition)
• Zero can not grow, do not lose — (Compound destroyer)
• Envy runs the world — (Man is disposed by nature to appropriate)
• Avoid Influence-from-mere-association — (Do not be misled by past successes)
• Lumpy over smooth — (A bumpy 15% beats a smooth 10%)
• Margin of Safety — (Price matters)
• Consilience — (Research across disciplines)
• Behind the curtain — (It is not in your best interest to tell all)
