Summary:
"Over the past 25 years Jason Calacanis has been building and investing in technology startups. In that time, he's made tens of millions of dollars by getting lucky-seven times. Angel takes you step-by-step through how massive, some say unfair, wealth is being created in the 21st century: i.e. by startups. In Angel he teaches readers how to get rich even if you came from humble beginnings like him (dad's a bartender, mom's a nurse), didn't go to the right schools, and were a career C-grade student. For budding entrepreneurs, the book will take them inside the mind of angel investors, helping them understand their priorities and decision-making process. Calacanis walks readers through the calculus and decision points great angel investors explore as they evaluate new ventures; he reveals how leading investors think and how the best startups leverage relationships with angel investors for the best results. Whether you're an aspiring investor or a budding entrepreneur, this book will inspire and educate you on all the ins of outs. There are two ways to make money in this world: create something valuable or invest in the people that are creating valuable things. Buckle up for a wild ride into the world of angel investing."--From publisher.
