Josh Maher An older student raised her hand to capture Sven's attention, "What causes them to implode like that before they reach consciousness?"

"Ah, a real question. When we know the answer, we'll let them out of the box."
Josh Maher As the President of Seattle Angel, I’ve worked with a fair number of new angel investors over the years. I continually found that investors were exploring a personal interest and an investment return when they approached angel investing. This is a little different than a pure financial investor as a pure financial investor isn’t necessarily interested in being a part of changing the world through their investments. An angel investor, by nature of the outsized return their after is investing to change the world as well as earn a return. I wondered how best to help new investors direct their passion in a way that also provided a return and found there wasn’t a good set of angel investing models, so I went about interviewing as many of the best angel investors I could find to see what I’d learn and write a book on my findings.
