521: How to Buy Stock in Companies Before They Go Public

I'm not a big stock guy. However, there are some companies out there that you know are just going to change the world, and it would be nice to be able to own part of them—especially before they go public. That's why this week on Wealth Formula Podcast we're diving into a topic that's been on my mind for quite some time: the world of pre-IPO investing. If you've ever felt like by the time a company finally hits the public market it's already ballooned in value and you're basically buying in at a premium, you're not alone. I personally had my eye on a company called Circle, which deals in stablecoins. As I've talked about on the show before, I think it's going to be huge globally. But as soon as Circle went public, the valuation shot up to a point where I felt like it was way too expensive to jump in. If I had access to those shares before the IPO, I would have definitely taken the plunge. Now, this isn't just about one company. We've seen this story play out with others, and right now there are some major game-changers like SpaceX on the horizon. SpaceX, one of Elon Musk's ventures, is one of those companies you just know is going to have a massive impact. But how do you get access to those deals? If you're an accredited investor, I have good news. Getting a piece of the action before these companies go public isn't just for the ultra-wealthy insiders anymore. It's becoming more accessible to accredited investors who want to get in earlier and potentially see greater upside. That's the topic of this week's Wealth Formula Podcast.
