Crowdfunding 101
Hey everyone!
Sean here.
Welcome to InvestmentX.
It’s important as we start on this journey together that you get familiar with crowdfunding or, more specifically, “regulated investment crowdfunding” as some of my industry friends are wanting to call it. I also sometimes refer to it as equity crowdfunding, or just crowdfunding, although that last one muddies the waters a little bit.
The point is that what we’re talking about isn’t Kickstarter or GoFundMe. The companies and other opportunities InvestmentX covers are not pre-selling you their products, they’re not non-profits, and they’re not raising money to pay a family member’s medical bills.
This is investing. It’s just not on the stock market.
Fortunately, I just had a great interview with my old friend and colleague Bill Patalon. Bill is a very sharp guy, and I encourage you to check out his newsletter, Stock Picker's Corner, on Substack.
As for the interview, for anybody who doesn't know much about equity crowdfunding, it’s a great overview.
And you’ll get to know a little bit about me, as well.

Enjoy, and buckle in.
It’s gonna be a wild ride!
