Hypothetical hindsight illustration using this plan’s selected holdings and allocation weights. It is not the creator’s actual historical portfolio or a live performance record. Each position’s ending value is its initial allocation × ending adjusted close ÷ purchase-date adjusted close. Distributions are reinvested in the same security; no rebalancing, withdrawals or new contributions. Fractional shares are assumed. Personal taxes and transaction costs are excluded; fund expenses are reflected in market-price performance.

The window ends on the latest verified session shared by all holdings and begins on the first matched trading session on or after its 5-year anniversary. International comparisons require same-date prices and exchange rates. Chart points use dates with prices for every invested holding. Dollar values are rounded for display; totals use unrounded values. Return methodology

Live Taxable KISS & DRIP — $100K Plan

11 investments with varied weights, fully allocating $100,000.

The ten source positions plus HTD from the broader Taxable Model. The extra holding makes a fully invested, unequal allocation possible without exceeding 10% per position.

How the $100K plan is calculated

Source position sizes · 20-holding maximum · 1–10% limits

01

A smaller selection from the source

10 of the 10 source positions are included. HTD is an additional Income Lens selection from the broader Taxable Model, explicitly identified in the table and download. Source asset-class labels and dated metrics remain intact.

02

Varied position sizes

Retain up to the 20 largest source positions, breaking ties by ticker, and use their market values as relative allocation priorities. HTD is added from the August 31 Taxable Model at a 5% initial priority. With only ten holdings, the 10% maximum would force all weights to be exactly 10%; the eleventh allows unequal sizing. It was not in the live taxable source. Scale the relative priorities proportionally, holding each position between 1% and 10%. Redistribute the remaining budget among positions inside those limits. Round to whole dollars using largest fractional remainders, with ticker order breaking ties.

03

A fully assigned $100,000

Each investment receives between $1,000 and $10,000. These target weights adapt the source to your limits; they do not reproduce the creator’s full account.

Each target allocation is multiplied by the sheet’s individual distribution yield on market price. The main source rates are dated Sep 19, 2026. HTD uses its separate Taxable Model rate dated Aug 31, 2026. This is an illustration, not a forecast or guaranteed income. The monthly figure is the annual total divided by 12, not a payment schedule. Distributions may change or include return of capital.

Sources & assumptions

Saved snapshot. This page uses the source captured September 22, 2026. It does not track future spreadsheet edits automatically. The eight sheets have different effective dates and should not be read as a synchronized set of accounts.

Historical comparison. The comparison above applies these target holdings to historical market prices with distributions reinvested. The live sheets may include earlier holdings in their reported returns. This comparison does not reconstruct Steve’s transactions or those replacement chains.

Holding changes. The source records EMO replacing JCE, ADX replacing USA and GAM replacing ASG. The old positions are not added as current holdings.

Separate budgets. Each active plan uses its own $100,000 budget. These are alternative allocations with overlapping holdings. No trades have been placed.
