When I win I bring we with me
"for the first time in 83 years, it's legal for non-accredited investors to purchase equity in private companies,"

Actually, I really do need to write up some profit sharing proposals on G.P. alone :jbhmm:

Looks like greater opportunities, but also a greater chance for risk...:patrice::jbhmm:

The purpose of the means test for income is to ensure that those who invest in private securities can handle the risk if there are losses.

Definitely not against it :manny:, the potential for reward rises in proportion to the amount of risk. :steviej:

How would one go about purchasing private equity? Would you have to contact the private companies directly?

You would purchase equity however they choose to sell it. There are some crowdfunding websites that let anyone purchase equity for multiple companies.

I'd be cautious about equity crowdfunding. If a company can't get funding through traditional means then the chances of them being successful aren't very high.

Just read the stories of shytty kickstarters to see why crowdfunding in general isn't a good idea (good for the company but not so good for the backers/founders)

A lot of times these companies are in over their heads and can't deliver the product in time. They end up taking losses because the economy of scales they thought were supposed to happen didn't. And also they don't know how to build a successful brand company past the initial "excitement phase" of kickstarter.
