Ask HN: How do I start angel investing?

19 pointsby bpickover 15 years ago
I am interested in becoming an angel investor, but I lack the whole "bringing something extra to the table" outside of the money aspect.<p>What advice would you give to someone like me, who is willing and able to put money into an early-stage start-up?

According to your blog, you are a 20 year old college student, even if you have the money(which I kinda doubt, unless of course parents), few will take you seriously.<p>Think of angel investing as doing startups, before the big results...you have to spend 3-5 years growing your site, 1 user at a time. So take the next 5-10 years building up your credentials and contacts, and by then you'll have something to offer besides money.

Where do you live? The simplest advice would be to join one of the local angel networks and join a more experienced member to mentor you.
