Good points, but the folks at Funders Club are professional investors. The referrers only get a kickback when FundersClub chooses to invest, and FundersClub will only do so if they think the company will be sufficiently successful. A standard which is likely higher than an unprofessional accredited investor's.

ESott,

Thanks, I completely misread the article. I thought it was suggesting that FoundersClub would pay an investor who brings in another investor. I didn't understand that FoundersClub would pay an investor who brings in a company.
