Just an example

I am too, running a business, whereby my 2 friends are my angel investors.

Each of them contribute rm50k for 20% stakes each, making me lost 40% in total, they initially commanded more, but I manage to get the deal.

You use a dramatized show as a gauge for professional information?

Your statement actually proves that in saying you gave an individual 20% stake per angel to be correct accordingly to my previous message; as reference in my reply yesterday angels typically take anywhere from 3 - 20% individually.

So to say that you gave 2 separate angel investors 40%, or as another example 3 separate angels 60%, and conflate it to the claim that a typical angel take 49% is rather disingenuous.

If making conclusions based on the exact words you say are "jumping to conclusions", I don't know what quantifiable facts can any investor then use factually as a gauge in your case.

If this is not jumping to conclusion, I don't know what is.





An investor can quantify by looking at the technology and the industry coupled with the biz blueprint.

You, however have jumped too fast to judgement even before you have seen anything.

A company is led by its people, not its technology. Its success does not lie in paper plans nor in intellectual property.

You are free to your opinions on that statement. I am free to mine as a person that puts my money where my mouth is.

Are all companies led by scientists?

Here we are discussin Angel/Cradle investments and a startup.

It seems you have meandered into success already!
If the company is already successful , we would NOT be discussing Angel/Cradle investors?
Which Angel investor would invest in a startup without product?

I AM free to my opinion. My opinion is that you have jumping to stumping judgemental conclusions without even knowing.

We are behind keyboards....who gives a Flying Geez whither you put your money?

Let me express my opinion. Your comment will be better off if you take down your avatar. No offence.....

You are free to yer opinion

I express my opinion because he allows me to in the first place. It was my genuine opinion anyway.

We should thank him for allowing us........

to express our opinions.

angel investor is sleeping partner?

something like that

Dramatised or not, the cash given is real, and professionals do seek them for investments. And are your investors are as rich and successful as the dragons?

And no.you.didn't mentioned the word individually. well even typically an individual investor "only" acquire 20% stakes, doesnt moot my comments for saying he could lost 49% of his own company stakes, who said he is going to find just one investor anyway?

And since when I said A typical investor will usually take 49% INDIVIDUALY??

Looks like you are not only good at putting your own money in where your mouth is, but other people words into your own mouth too.
