Is it possible to buy stock in companies like Airbnb/Stripe/ThoughtSpot? TC: 425k
To get accreditation you need net worth of over 1mil or income of >200k for two years I think
You need an accountant to certify you meet this bar I think
Thanks for the tip about needing the accountant for certification
Do we still have the lock in periods after IPO with stock purchased with equity zen ?
Yes, all investors are locked out till the lockup expires, the IPO share that are issued are pretty much the only shares for the first 6 months
I use Equityzen. Some good companies have shares available periodically but you need to be an accredited investor
Noob here. Is there any benefit to investing in pre-ipo companies now vs when they actually are public?
A lot of the big valuation jumps happen when they are still private. Look at Uber and Lyft
