Angel investing doesn't require huge money or a tech job. New laws lowered the financial barriers, and ordinary people without tech backgrounds are doing it successfully. Education and real examples show it's more accessible than most people think.
Top misconceptions about angel investing that I always hear over and over again is that it's really expensive to do. You have to have a lot of money to do it. That was the case, you know, maybe several years ago, but there has been laws that have changed that makes it a lot more accessible. And so that's like the biggest misconception. The other misconception that I hear a lot is that you have to be in the tech space. Like, you have to be a tech person or work in a tech job or just somehow involved in the tech space to do angel investing. And, you know, nothing could be further from the truth to help someone shift their expectations or their understanding around those misconceptions that they may have about angel investing. It's just really education and just really giving them real world examples of who's doing it, how they're doing it, and how they can apply it. And I think that's the biggest way, by just describing real life examples and use cases of regular, everyday folks that are doing angel investing. And when they see that or hear about that happening, then they are more able to connect themselves with being able to do that as well.
