Chapter 11
Cash Management

When you open your account, you'll probably start with more than one stock and hopefully 10 stocks - the ideal number. When you start the system, you'll have a separate spreadsheet for each stock and a separate cash account for each stock.

However, you really have ONE CASH Account with one balance. You started with ten stocks and $15,430; then you would have one Ready Assets account with a balance of $5,000.

Now look at the spreadsheet showing the 10 cash balances and the cash total (next page). Now you can see what I was talking about in Chapters 15 & 16 when you had to "borrow" money to buy more shares. You will really be borrowing from other stocks in your Ready Assets account.

I recommend you set up a summary cash sheet like this for yourself. You could also put a column showing portfolio value. Then you could quickly decide when your cash balance exceeds 33% and use the extra money to buy additional stock.

The cash balances will not be the same as the cash figures in Chapter 15 spreadsheets. The balances shown here reflect the net cash amount remaining. For example if the cash balance on the spreadsheet was $5,000 but the stock "borrowed" $4,000 then the cash summary would show $1,000. If the stock didn't borrow cash then the numbers are the same. Here I'm trying to show the actual cash remaining in your money market account.
