@ClintFiore Couldn't agree more. I've bought two businesses since joining the mastermind and it's changed my life completely.

Our 2023 Annual Investment Letter.

I haven’t written an investor letter since 2019 when I left my PE fund and decided to invest with largely my own capital.

Investor letters always felt like pain to me.

Long, tedious, often unread.

It can also feel a bit egotistical — “Let me write you a mini novel to tell you all I’ve accomplished this year.”

For that reason, I’ve been largely private with what we own, what we buy, and who we are.

And yet – the most common questions I'm asked are about our investments.

So here's what I hope this letter is:

Sharing with you what typically only people who write 7 to 8 figure checks get to see.

[Lloyd Silver @lloydsilver]

@Codie_Sanchez Thanks for sharing and I really appreciate getting a glimpse inside the mind.

[Lloyd Silver @lloydsilver]

@girdley Thanks for sharing this. I understand the numbers are illustrative. It's a shame some people can't seem to get past that.

@deveshkhanal You can do this in Slack as well once it's connected to zoom. The primary purpose is to invite someone in a channel but there's no reason you can't copy the link. And outlook does it as well for meeting invites.
