One. Buy Investment Trust’s that pay a dividend and re-invest those dividends to buy more Investment Trust’s that pay a dividend.

Two. Most dividends will gently increase, see earlier post.

Three. Book profits when shares increase in value and re-invest into the Snowball, sometimes u can buy back the shares sold at a better price.

Four. Add fuel to the fire by adding capital to the portfolio.

Five. Time in the market. As long as the dividend isn’t drastically changed, the holy grail of investing is to have a share in your portfolio, where all your capital has been returned and re-invested in the market and the yield is ???? on a share that sits in your account at zero, nil, zilch cost.

Note: The Snowball had an initial seed capital of 100k and the intention is not to add any further capital, mainly for monitoring the progress of the Snowball.
