At EarlyStartup.com, our investment philosophy is grounded in contrarian approaches that diverge significantly from the traditional pathways of startup investing.

This divergence means that the recommendations and tactics we explore in our publications might appear risky and unconventional to many. This perspective also sheds light on why traditional investors and mainstream media, who often adhere to a more conventional “prudent investor” approach, might critique our methods or even level accusations of wrongdoing against us. We encourage you to meticulously consider our startup investment ideas and rigorously apply our risk management strategies, particularly regarding position sizing and the implementation of trailing stop losses. Above all, we advocate for a deep understanding of the principles that drive our contrarian stance. By comprehending the rationale behind our belief in these strategies, you’ll be better equipped with the emotional resilience and discipline needed to successfully navigate startup investing. Without this foundational understanding, achieving success in this arena becomes a challenging endeavor.

A very important warning: We make mistakes.

At EarlyStartup.com, we embrace our humanity, acknowledging that we occasionally err in our judgments and predictions regarding startups. While we’re proud to say our missteps are relatively rare, there are times when our foresight on market trends doesn’t align with real-world timing, impacting the profitability of investments. Moreover, despite diligent verification of our sources, we sometimes encounter misinformation.Our confidence in the value of our work is bolstered by the substantial number of clients who continue to trust in our services, as well as the success stories reflected in our internal track records. We believe you’d be hard-pressed to find another publisher delivering content as comprehensive and well-researched as ours. Yet, it’s crucial to recognize that no publication, including esteemed outlets like the New York Times, is immune to the occasional error. Rest assured, when mistakes occur, we’re committed to rectifying them swiftly and transparently.It’s an exceptional case, albeit possible, for individuals to amass wealth quickly through investing in startups alone. We view the most feasible path to wealth as either launching your own venture or playing a pivotal role in the development or substantial expansion of an existing business. Our newsletters are crafted to assist those on their wealth-building journey, whether they’re navigating the early stages of managing their savings or seeking ways to maximize returns on significant savings already accumulated.

DISCLOSURES ABOUT OUR BUSINESS

The cornerstone of investment philosophy, from our perspective at EarlyStartup.com, is both fundamental and clear:

Investing invariably carries the risk of loss.

Interestingly, investing can often seem most perilous precisely when it feels the safest. This historical observation has guided us towards a distinct and unconventional strategy – adopting a contrarian viewpoint towards investing in early startups. Our conviction in this approach is strongly supported by our interpretation of historical trends and our own performance track record. However, as widely acknowledged, past successes do not guarantee future outcomes. No matter the depth of our research or the allure of the opportunity, the inherent uncertainty in early startups means that every investment bears the potential for loss. This inherent risk underscores why truly exceptional investment ideas are both scarce and immensely precious. It’s crucial for you to understand why a company like ours chooses to share these startup ideas with you, and the terms under which we do so. This document is designed to elucidate why we publish our top startup ideas and insights (rather than solely investing on our own or managing an investment fund) and to clarify the conflicts of interest we encounter as publishers. It details how we compile our track records, our stance on guarantees and refunds, and the regulatory landscape we operate within. Most importantly, it lays the groundwork for a fruitful and enduring partnership. We have a commitment to serve our subscribers with information we’d confidently recommend to our own families, maintaining absolute transparency about our products’ effectiveness, and always considering how we’d wish to be treated in your place. By taking the time to understand this document, you’re more likely to thrive with our resources. You’ll gain insight into our investor service approach, comprehend the limits of our assistance, and, critically, become more aware of the risks that investing in early startups inevitably entails.
