> Reminder: you can take money from non-accredited investors My understanding is that it's only legal if investors approach you, or if you solicit individual investors on a one-by-one basis. It's illegal to simply announce that you're publicly accepting investment. I wholeheartedly agree that the marketing of these types of offerings need to be tightly regulated, but as it stands today, it's effectively impossible to participate (as an investor) without having a personal connection to the business.
