What the hell is JMo Capital? Well, before you start getting too excited, I'm not opening a fund...at least not yet. The idea behind this was simply to get my own place to do my thing. No question this is all going to mostly revolve around investing; it's what I do. The "Capital" part is a tip of the cap to not only what may happen in the future, but also to what's happening right now. Today, tomorrow, my job, my life; it's about my human capital. What I'm doing and why I'm doing it.
I gained a lot of perspective at work running a real money portfolio for The Motley Fool. What started out as a nervous experiment turned into a great experience and it gave me the confidence that one day if/when I choose to do so I can manage money. It'll be on my terms and in line with how I invest.
I shut that portfolio down a little while back as it was eating into too much time that I needed to devote to Motley Fool One and, to a lesser extent, Stock Advisor. Those are what bring home the bacon and I couldn't let 'em slip. But I did well up to that point running neck and neck with the market and chalking up absolute returns of better than 25% for the two years I ran the portfolio.
This is me making sure I keep myself in check. Learning more, embracing my mistakes, finding some great ideas, having fun, and hopefully helping some good people out along the way. I may very well be talking to nobody. But if anyone out there is keeping up, I hope you enjoy.
