Angel Investing

Investing personal capital in early-stage startups. The saved tweets that reference it include a five-step sequence from @Julian (sourcing, picking, winning, adding value, following on), with a warning that adverse selection comes from seeing only deals within arm’s reach; Sahil Lavingia’s advice to start small and invest in your smartest, hardest-working friends; Lenny Rachitsky’s lessons from 140+ angel investments; and a skeptical take from Gil Dibner that operator angels as a class have over-promised and under-delivered, “almost as egregiously as VCs.” Other entries cover directories, courses and fellowships for new angels.
