Investing in Venture Capital: Understanding The Basics
Companies go public so late, and public stock selection is so limited. So how do investors get exposure to private companies like Anthropic? We get this question every week.
This is a free online session on exactly that: how you can get access to venture, an asset class that generates significant returns.
Friday, September 25, 12pm ET / 6pm CET / 9am PT. Online, one hour, accessible to all.
What we will cover:
Why companies stay private longer, and how it affects your investment returns
Who can invest in venture
What a venture fund is, how to find and pick one, and how it works
Where the catch is and what the tradeoffs are: risk and reward
US taxpayers: how you can make millions and pay 0 in taxes
Real-world examples
Who is it for:
People with $1M+ net worth or $200k+ annual income; venture investing is not just for the super-rich
People with a large stock or index portfolio
Employees of public companies with stock compensation
People interested in being part of frontier tech
People who want to invest in companies like SpaceX and Anthropic before they are already valued at $1T+ and the upside is limited
Not a pitch. Just the education we wish someone had given us when we were only investing in stocks for years. Live Q&A at the end.
