Where? I didn't think any of the pre-IPO marketplaces took investment at that level.

How?

> In the U.S., the term accredited investor is used by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under Regulation D to refer to investors who are financially sophisticated and have a reduced need for the protection provided by regulatory disclosure filings.

In a pre-IPO company, VCs and other investment groups consider unaccredited investors to be a liability, and they'll either give worse terms or no terms. If you're worth a million bucks the SEC considers you to be a grown-up and that you'll ask questions rather than being spoon-fed data that can help you protect your investment, which takes away a bunch of scenarios where you can litigate.

I worked at a company that turned out to have an unaccredited investor. I didn't hear the details but they had to 'fix it' before the VCs would move forward with discussions. (They still didn't get the money.)

GP's implication is that if you have a million bucks you can get (are?) accredited, which will give you access to private shares. I've heard this too, but I couldn't tell you the details.

I am an accredited investor and make (small) investments on a number of platforms (ex FundersClub, AngelList), but have never seen healthy late-stage pre-IPO companies like SpaceX on any of them.

My read was that they were alluding to sites that allow employees to sell their options/shares to non-employees.

FundersClub and AngelList are more executive-focussed sites, aren't they?

What sites allow employees to sell their options/shares to non-employees?
