Legally, the penalties are pretty stiff.

It allows a greater money raise than CF, allows for both accredited and non accredited investors, they do not need to go through a platform which charges stiff fees, and they have to get qualified by the sec so they have to provide financials and go through background checks to get qualifiedThe costs for qualification are also six figures so you would assume the company has some financial backing and experience behind it as I would not suspect one would drop $100k+ on an offering with no experience.

However the competition is stiff, unless you have a competitive advantage in Fairfield?

You need a stiff floor brush and dilute your bleach with water and scrub.

Plus the penalties at my age are pretty stiff. 

Everyone and their Mommy wants that one so competition is SUPER stiff and there really aren't too too many in the city (or in areas where you'd want to be I should say).Would be happy to share knowledge and XP.

Many are either stale or you will face stiff competition from the big money guys.

I am too young to have experienced the opening of flood gates on the buy side that some have experienced in prior markets so stiff competition is all I know.
