Why Angel Investing Isn't Always as Risky as You Think
Dear Startup Investor,

There are a few key qualities shared by every great angel investor.

A good intuition and even temperament will take you pretty far in this game. It doesn't hurt to have a passion for entrepreneurship and innovation, either.

But patience is absolutely critical. Angel investing is not for those who can't stand the idea of leaving their investments tied up for a few years.

Those folks are better suited to the stock market, where they at least have the option to take their money back at any time.

The stock market is safe in that regard. But people who play it too safe miss out on the really big rewards. They pocket a little extra dough each year, while those who take risks get rich.

Seriously. On a good year, a stock portfolio returns around 10 percent. A well-managed angel portfolio? More like 25 or 30.

Plus, in my opinion, the risks are overblown.

Sure, you can lose all your money as an angel investor, especially if you throw your entire weight behind one startup. In fact, if that's your only strategy, you probably will lose everything.

But that's not how my strategy works - and, if you follow the same protocols I do, you'll find that angel investing isn't always as risky as you'd think.

Until next time,
