Intro To Angel Investing | Lecture #7 | Create Your Own Opportunities - Taught by Garry Johnson III
Dear Students,
This is one of my favorite lessons in this course. It's about creating your own opportunities and realizing that you have everything you need to build the life you want. When it comes to building an investment portfolio and investing in startups, it doesn't have to be a passive game. You can play an active role in not just finding and investing in interesting deals, but also helping entrepreneurs and small business owners understand that they can raise investment money from their community.
Shift your mindset from focusing on what's readily available to you, like websites for finding opportunities, to thinking about how you can create new opportunities that may not exist yet. As an investor, you can see the value in different products and services that entrepreneurs bring to the market, and you can be an advocate for equity crowdfunding.
