The same could be said about my own demise and the passing of our portfolio(s) onto my wife and/or children, who may or may not have the same level of interest in maintaining the portfolio.
However, I like to think that Stephen is not just a stock picker, but a teacher. I’m fairly confident that I could continue my portfolio indefinitely following the same basic principles. Shares already held don’t need much or any looking after. Sure I’d make a few mistakes, that’s for sure. But I’m not adding nearly as much new money as I used to, and I hope to start drawing the income soon instead of reinvesting. Initially any new money can go to topping up existing sector underweights, assuming they still appear to have a good yield. My biggest concern is company debt and how much is “acceptable” given it’s prevalence in so many sectors…
