Our Policies

The following policies were last updated on Nov. 27, 2004 and will go into effect Dec. 4, 2004:

1. Abe insures initial $500 against investment losses. In the event of insolvency, the insured amount of $500 will be divided among shareholders according to percentage shareholdership.

2. GMI shareholders receive an annual report along with their annual letters when total funds equal or exceed $100. Day to day operations are reported in blog.

3. When fund manager decides a person fits our mission statement, members will be asked if they wish to contribute their shares. Once members choose to dispense their funds, the charitable decision cannot be undone.

4. Fund manager has sole discretion of how funds are invested.

5. Fund manager has sole discretion over who becomes a GMI member.

6. Fund manager has sole discretion of how much a member can contribute within a period of time.

7. Shareholders may dispense funds as long as it fits our goals for helping friends in need.
In emergency or dispute, shareholders may opt to withdraw original funds at anytime. Funds will be made available by fund manager within 48 hours. This is an all or nothing proposition, as withdrawing funds must be done completely or not at all, and results in the ending shareholdership.

8. Rules may be made and repealed by fund manager, but require notice to be published online and a minimum of one calender week to go into effect.

9. At least 20% of total funds will be held in cash.

10. We currently do not accept donations.
