Independence capital stack

Allocate for optionality

13 minindependence capital stack

A simple approach to allocation when your goal is resilience, upside, and staying hard to corner.

Allocation is about range

If your portfolio design removes all room to move, it is not especially elegant.

Optionality-minded allocation asks:

  • what keeps me resilient
  • what keeps me liquid
  • what gives me sensible upside

Keep the framework simple

You do not need twenty clever buckets. You need a structure you can explain clearly on a normal Wednesday.
