  • Results shared by Tony Wilkins, including specific exits and returns, are his personal results. They are not typical and are not a promise of what you will achieve.

Most Angel Investors Learn By Losing Money First

There is no CFA for angel investing.

No structured roadmap.

No proven curriculum.

Lack of a clear framework for evaluating founders and risk.

As a result, many investors:

  • Write checks based on excitement instead of conviction

  • Skip proper diligence

  • Follow the crowd instead of developing judgment

  • Learn expensive lessons after the money is already gone

The reality?

Many early-stage investments fail. 

The investors who succeed aren't the ones who avoid losses entirely. They're the ones who approach every investment with a repeatable system.
