With everyone focused on the NOW, I am focussed on the LATER. The parameters for my capital are to only invest in companies which:

• Have rock-solid balance sheets

• Can continuously pay & increase their dividend payments

• Have suitable capital appreciation potential

• Will still be around in decades to come.

Although I have laid more emphasis in recent months to allocate to companies that will fair well during inflationary environments (true pricing power), and those which I think are strong enough to outlast a multi-year recession, the process stays the same, stack the odds of compounding in my favour.
