A lot of research shows that, in the long term, buying the index is just about as good a strategy as you can have. Part of the charm of active stock picking is that people enjoy it, they enjoy the process of studying the price to earnings ratio, analysing the market with charting techniques, or collecting additional market information and taking a chance. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In some sense angel investing is almost an extreme form of stock picking. You\u2019re not just picking the stock based on information, you\u2019re also getting to know the management, influencing the strategy of the company, participating in future funding rounds over time, and being a part of the exit process. You\u2019re not just picking the stock based on information, you are actually helping to create value in the underlying company.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>What makes angel investing interesting?<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is said that airline pilots often fly a glider on the weekend. When airline pilot sits in a regular cockpit they are surrounded by systems and buttons. When that pilot spends the weekend in a gliding aeroplane with no controls and no engine, they can hear the birds when they fly by them. That\u2019s real flying. Angel investing does for investors what flying a glider does for a pilot.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As an angel investor, you are dependent on your skills as a deal scout, networker, manager, advisor and negotiator. It tests your senses and skills, and it feels great when everything comes together. Angel investing requires emotional energy and intelligence from the investor constantly. We\u2019re talking about the extreme side of high-risk, high-return investing, which lies even beyond private equity and venture capital.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you know what you\u2019re doing you can also make a lot more money than you can on a public stock index. But it\u2019s going to take more time and more effort. If you consider that time and effort a source of energy, then you have a double gain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Which stock market know-how can you apply to angel investing?<\/b><b><br \/><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A typical active stock market investor, and also an index tracker investor, is an experienced business person. They can look at their own daytime business experience to see if they can add that to a company. Their own business network can also be an asset to the entrepreneur, who might be a lot younger or have a different network.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another form of knowledge an investor can add is just looking at a company from a different perspective from the founder: Do we have an exit strategy? Are there skills missing from the founding team? Is the value going up? That additional perspective on the company doesn\u2019t naturally come from an entrepreneur, because they see the company as their own creation. So there\u2019s a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.leapfunder.com\/rounds\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">win-win<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> when an investor comes together with an entrepreneur.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>What can be an issue for stock market investors when angel investing?<\/b><b><br \/><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remember our pilot-investor comparison<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">?<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Well, angel investing<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">is so much less autopilot.

What you do, or don\u2019t do, could affect the success of the startup.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Tip for stock market investors who want to invest in startups<\/b><b><br \/><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the investment criteria that makes you decide whether to invest in a company or not, is whether you love that company and you want to be part of that innovative area. If you love it, it\u2019s going to be a source of joy and interest to you every time you get a CEO update.
