Andy Reed interviews Swati Chaturvedi to discuss the topic: Who should be an angel investor? 

Discussions focus on three key criteria as you consider angel investing: 

  1. Are you an accredited investor (in the United States) or permitted by your country's regulations to invest in startups?
  2. Will you be able to set aside sufficient capital to build a diversified portfolio? Swati suggests a rule of thumb to consider -  invest in 20 or more startups to build a diversified portfolio. Assuming you can set aside a minimum of $5,000 per startup, you should be able to invest at least $100,000 in startups over 3-4 year.
  3. Are you able to stomach the risk? Andy and Swati discuss startup volatility and high risk nature.
