5 Rules of Investing at Viridian Capital
- Invest locally
If you cannot drive to your investment asset or to the promoters of that asset in 90 minutes, you are probably not our customer. We believe that being able to see your investments, watch those assets grow and enjoy that process is critical for any investor. We also believe that any opportunity that comes from Wall Street is a better deal for the Wall Street brokers/bankers than it is for you. Stay home and stay safe! - Invest in what you know
Stay with “sector specific” transactions. If you are a doctor, take a look at investing in medical office buildings in you area because you will most likely know that market and that product. If you are a veterinarian that treats horses, investing in the local horse boarding facility makes sense, stick to what you know and understand. - Invest in what you enjoy
If your interests are in wine, coffee, golf or tennis, there are many local and high quality opportunities in which you can take advantage. Certainly the financial benefits are important, but it is the keen sense of interest and sharing transactions with people who share your “hobbies” that add quality and enjoyment to you money. - Invest in who you know
It is law that money people, “know their customer” and their risk tolerances, as well as their overall financial position. It should be law that those same investors have the same responsibility to know their advisors. It is important to share time, a spirited debate and personal day to day conversations to make sure that the goals and benefits meet everyone’s expectations. - Invest in assets and not just paper or promises
Land, minerals, water, gold, silver are all good examples. Stay out of paper investments and invest in what you can feel, touch and enjoy!
