Dear Angel Investor,
100 shares of Walmart stock, purchased back at their IPO in 1969 would have cost you $1,650.
More than 50 years and 11 stock splits later, those 100 shares are now 204,800.
With Walmart trading at around $140/share today, that $1,650 investment in 1969 is now worth a cool $28.67M (not including dividend payments).
That's the power of early investing.
The good thing about public companies like Walmart is, if you missed investing in 1969, you could have invested in 1970, 1971...or 1980.
If you were alive, that is.
But with startup investing…
If you miss your opportunity to invest in an early round of fundraising, you may never be able to invest again.
It's true.
While many early-stage startups do indeed go on to raise future rounds, they're often reserved for accredited or institutional investors (high net worth individuals)
We have two startups still accepting investors (regardless of your net worth) but nearing the end of their raise.
When their rounds close...will they ever raise money again? Will you be eligible to invest in those future rounds?
That I don't know, but it doesn't matter to me –– I've already invested in both companies.
Don't get me wrong...being an early investor comes with its share of risk.
But the excitement and return potential are unmatched.
