The biggest fortunes aren’t made on Wall Street. They’re made way before startups hit the stock market. Consider Mike Walsh, a name just like any of ours who invested $5,000 into Uber. And that investment money? It grew to a staggering $24,827,400!
Such opportunities were once behind closed doors. Reserved for those with connections or vast fortunes. But that’s no more.
StartEngine is tearing down those exclusivity walls and making startup investments accessible to you and me...
