{That Brand, that Stewart Brand character. At it again. More than any one else who was there,and there were many, and many still among us, he embodies the next move after psychedelic revelation. After the pancake breakfast. After the twinkling exhalations. When it's time to do something with all that was given. Humble arrogance of limitless imaginative endeavour. Dialled right to the fractal edge of the possible.}
What if your investment portfolio tanks? The Farsight Fund portfolio at Capital Research, which holds all the Long Bets stakes, is carefully designed NOT to tank, and also to take advantage of its very-long-term schedule� it can ignore market oscillations that would upset other funds. The portfolio is more global than most, so it can also ignore local economic oscillations. There is always the possibility that civilization as a whole could tank, and then probably the Farsight Fund would go down with it. On the other hand, The Long Now Foundation is building tools to manage civilizational breakdown, and maybe it could devise some sort of device or system to provide value continuity. Suggestions welcome.
