This week on Taking Stock, Chives was joined by John Wooten and together they welcomed open commentary from the community as they discussed the broader aims of WhyDRS and how best to actuate them. The intention to register as a non-profit 501c3 was discussed for the first time, and how that would help realize more potential for ownership advocacy to advance itself. Investors and issuers are self interested to seek a higher ratio of ownership, and the differences between communities are imagined walls. So much more can be accomplished through collective action and drive towards the development of a new market structure, of investors and for investors.
It is a vision that regards the financial empowerment of individuals not as a means to generate profit but as an end in itself. This perspective is inspired by the belief that true progress in financial democratization can only be achieved when the primary motive is the collective welfare of the community rather than individual or corporate gain.
This was just the first time broaching this topic, and we’re looking forward to bringing more people and more investor groups into the conversation.
