Is there any easy way to invest in startups?

from the self-post dept.

Ive seen secondmarket.com and sharespost.com but they seem to be for institutional investors and not very straight forward. I'm talking about investing sums of around $500-10000.

You mean something like circleup.com? Do keep in mind that the ink on the JOBS act (which regulates small investments) is barely dry, I think it passes just yesterday!

I (and others on HN, I'm sure) would be interested in pitching you, if you can invest with a clear, reasonable, and legally sound seed funding contract/agreement.
