The hardest word in family capital isn't "no." It's "not yet." And the families who master that phrase outperform everyone else.

The discipline of "not yet" means maintaining dry powder not as a hedge, but as a weapon — preserving capital for dislocations when real opportunities emerge and forced sellers appear.

Key topics: capital deployment timing, dry powder strategy, market dislocation investing, patient capital, family office discipline, vintage selection, opportunistic investing, deployment pacing, private equity LP, venture capital LP, raising capital from family offices, wealth preservation, wealth building, UHNW investors, alternative investments, asset allocation, portfolio management.

The Capital Stack — a daily briefing for family offices, next-gen principals, and trusted advisors who allocate long-term private capital.
