Karen Rands discovered angel investing and compassionate capitalism as a wealth creation strategy as she left the corporate world to go to work for a start up to bring innovation to market and get funding.   Like so many, she thought that startup capital came from venture capitalists.  She quickly discovered a whole segment of investors that invested to create wealth, but also to have an impact on the innovation being introduced to the world and jobs being created in the local community.  To demystify this area of asset investing for savvy investors she wrote the best selling book Inside Secrets to Angel Investing.  Click to get free sample
