知名天使投资人James Altucher：我的天使投资原则总结
作者：网络 &&来源：网络 && 时间： 10:40:00 && 字体：&&
关键词: &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

James Altucher 是一名投资者，程序员，作家以及一名创业人员。他现任Formula Capital 的执行经理， 并已经出版了6本有关投资的书籍。He&s Giving Away Free 是他的最新的一部作品。James在1998年出售了自己创办的公司Reset，并在2007年出售了。你可以通过他的twitter账户@jaltucher关注他。
在经历了一次次沉痛的教训后，我意识到我是我见过的那些最蠢投资者中的一员。举两个简单的例子：我给Yasser Arafat带来了的200万美金损失（及在交易过程中损失的100万美金）以及作出了&史上最失败的风投决定&。这两个事件都发生在2000年至2001年之间，也给我留下了历史上最差劲投资者的恶名。
幸运的是，我从经验中吸取了教训。我成功的经营了几家初创公司，其中包括之后我被卖给的。在这之后我开始了我的天使投资，并从中总结出了一些技巧来帮助我避免重蹈之前的覆辙。
人人都在诟病天使投资，但相比风险投资，天使投资的优势在与对投资项目有更自由的选择权也不需要那么劳心劳力。作为天使投资人，我可以每天翻阅很多项目书，但只对感兴趣的项目进行投资。但风险投资者则不同：他们的工作是进行投资，并从中收取管理费用，这个有力的经济因素也是很多风险投资人员不断进行投资的驱动。在这种情况下，很多风险投资者是出于对客户的和工作的责任去进行投资的。
以下是我总结的的天使投资经验清单：
第一，与那些比你聪明的同行一起投资。那些入行比我早很久的天使投资人通常有很多与创业人员打交道的经验，也能够慧眼识珠。所以如果一个项目能吸引这样的投资者，我也会有兴趣介入。我参与过的这样的投资项目有很多，Buddy Media就是这样的一个例子。
第二， 那些有着从业经验的CEO才值得你的投资。Buddy Media的CEO，Michael Lazerow就是一个很好的例子。在我成立之初，他曾来找我希望出任网站的CEO。记得那时他刚刚将自己投入了7年心血的Golf卖给了华纳，并在寻觅一些新的机会。虽然当时我并没有将CEO的职位交给他，但我仍从他身上学到很多新的想法。之后他迅速成立了Buddy Media，而我也有幸成为了投资人。在Michael成功的创办了两个初创公司后，他对于自己作为CEO的职责由很清楚的认识。对于这点我深信不疑。Ticketfly是另一个相当成功的投资 & 公司的CEO Andrew Dreskin曾经创立并出售过类似的网站。后来他在之前产品的基础上通过改进创建了ticketfly并成功获得了很多资深投资人的青睐。这简直是最完美的投资项目。
第三， 投资那些符合人口发展趋势的项目。在接下来的几年里，美国将会新增七千六百万退休人口。大概只有互联网和Facebook激增的用户数量才能和这样的人口浪潮相媲美了。从癌症和抑郁症，针对个人的医疗服务正在逐渐成为诊断和治疗各类疾病的标准途径。所以在我很看好针对退休人员市场的初创公司，并希望能够和那些有经验的投资者一起涉猎这一领域的投资。如果不这样选择投资项目，大概又要应了我的那句口头禅：&我太愚笨，都分不清这是不是一个好的投资机会。&
第四， 逢低入市。通常情况以上的1-3条投资指南已经足够，但锦上添花也没什么不好。我收到很多投资申请，通常我可能会从20个或者更多的项目中挑选一个进行投资。在筛选投资项目的过程中，并没有有一个确定的方法去判定一个公司的估值是否过低。现在看来Twitter第一轮2000万美金的估值的确太低，但在当时我可能会认为这是个客观的价值评价，并很可能选择不投资这家公司。这与市场的大小和公司的收入渠道都有很大关系。这也就呼应了我的第一条投资原则：如果我能有机会投资所有那些最优秀投资者参股的项目，并且在股权比重和条款上获得一定优势，我一定有很大的投资优势。只要有资金，项目并不难找。还是那一句：做天使投资人，其实很容易。
如果在投资过程中你可以做到以上这四点，那你基本就可以高枕无忧了。如果我和Kleiner Perkins一起投资一个项目，我有信心他的那些MBA研究员们已经替我完成了所有的调查和研究。但通常情况下为了保险起见我也会自己做一些调查。以下是一份我的投资调查清单。老实讲我并没有期待通过调查获得什么新的情报，只是想让自己更安心，但是有些时候这些调查的确能给我一些新的启发。

Markets have crashed. Jobs have disappeared. Industries have been disrupted and are being remade before our eyes. Everything we aspired to for “security,” everything we thought was “safe,” no longer is: College. Employment. Retirement. Government. It’s all crumbling down. In every part of society, the middlemen are being pushed out of the picture. No longer is someone coming to hire you, to invest in your company, to sign you, to pick you. It’s on you to make the most important decision in your life: Choose Yourself.
New tools and economic forces have emerged to make it possible for individuals to create art, make millions of dollars and change the world without “help.” More and more opportunities are rising out of the ashes of the broken system to generate real inward success (personal happiness and health) and outward success (fulfilling work and wealth).
This book will teach you to do just that. With dozens of case studies, interviews and examples–including the author, investor and entrepreneur James Altucher’s own heartbreaking and inspiring story–Choose Yourself illuminates your personal path to building a bright, new world out of the wreckage of the old.CreateSpaceWe've been brainwashed. We need to acknowledge this. We need to recognize who has been doing the brainwashing and work towards reversing its effects. Then, building from the core, we can learn who we really are, get success, wealth, and finally happiness. This book lays out the techniques to escape the zombie recruitment machine, expanding our personal frontiers, and finding the tools to build up the wealth of happiness inside.Create SpacePeople were emailing me many questions, “How did you get yourself off the floor?” “What do you think of X?” “How can I build Y?” “How do I come up with ideas?” “How can I self-publish a book?” “How can I be happy when I’m going through a divorce?” I am not very good at answering emails. However, I wanted to answer these questions, and I felt that not just me but anyone can answer the questions. So I started to schedule one hour a week, Thursdays from 3:30-4:30 EST, so anyone could ask.RoundTableIn the first comic book adapted from a blog with 500,000+ visitors per month, James Altucher reveals what it takes to be successful through his own blend of wisdom and wit packaged in neuroses. Guaranteed to invoke both love and hate from readers, the Altucher Confidential comic book shares James' personal stories of success and failure in business and life.
Create SpaceBuilding from the core you can create the luck you need, the health you want, and find the wealth, success, and happiness you seek. This book describes the techniques I've used throughout my life to get the luck I needed to get through both the hard times and the great times.Create SpaceDon't want crushing student loan debt? Afraid you won't be able to get a job otherwise? 40 Alternatives to College will save you money, geet you greater experience than college would have, give you adventures along the way that you will remember forever, and grant you the satisfaction of having chosen the life you want to lead.
PenguinWarren Buffett once said that his favorite holding period for a stock is “forever.” Now James Altucher shows how to find “forever” stocks—ones you can safely buy and hold for at least twenty years. These companies will profit from broad demographic trends and can ride out any short-term market fluctuations.
For instance, Altucher says it’s smart to invest in:
Obesity: 33 billion dollars are spent each year on services for the obese
Dirty Water: Developing countries are finding it much harder to deliver clean water to their growing populations, and companies that sell clean water treatment technologies will thrive
Luxury: The rich are recession-proof, and the stocks of luxury producers make a great hedge against any slowdown in the global economy
The Forever Portfolio shows investors how to build a strong, consistent, long-term portfolio, diversified enough to withstand the various cycles of the market.WileyLearn the successful strategies behind hedge fund investing
Hedge funds and hedge fund trading strategies have long been popular in the financial community because of their flexibility, aggressiveness, and creativity. Trade Like a Hedge Fund capitalizes on this phenomenon and builds on it by bringing fresh and practical ideas to the trading table. This book shares 20 uncorrelated trading strategies and techniques that will enable readers to trade and invest like never before. With detailed examples and up-to-the-minute trading advice, Trade Like a Hedge Fund is a unique book that will help readers increase the value of their portfolios, while decreasing risk.
