In this episode, I dive into the core of what Compassionate Capitalism really means and that’s creating wealth for yourself while lifting up entrepreneurs in the process. One of the most powerful tools we have today to make that happen is crowdfunding investing.
I break down the different types of crowdfunding, and why equity crowdfunding is such a game changer, not just for startups, but for everyday investors who want to put their money to work with meaning.
I also tackle the big question: "Is it risky?" Sure, there are risks, but I explain how to navigate them wisely. More importantly, I stress how critical it is that women and minorities get equal access to these wealth-building opportunities.
If you've ever thought about investing in a way that aligns with your values, this episode is your roadmap. Join me as we explore how you can build wealth with purpose through crowdfunding investing.
Key takeaways from the episode:
Compassionate Capitalism means building wealth while making a difference.
Crowdfunding opens access to early-stage investing for everyone.
Equity crowdfunding lets you own a piece of businesses you believe in.
Education reduces risk and leads to smarter investing.
Inclusive investing helps close the wealth gap.
