We have "qualified investors" for the worldwide casino that is the equities market, to ensure you can't gamble more as an early investor than you could afford to lose.

Any adult in the US can invest in equities. The equities just have to be listed and approved. It is all the other type of equity investing (angle, VC, etc) that you are not allowed to do (and where all the growth is moving to) if you are not a "qualified investor".

> as an early investor

Perhaps it wasn't clear that I meant to lump angels and VCs together as "early investors". "Pre-IPO investors" would require unpacking a TLA.
