Until very recently, investing in an early-stage company or project was only the purview of the Rich, Famous, and Well Connected. The "average investor" was left totally out of the game, but technology has changed all that for the better. Where there are great risks, there are potentially great rewards, yes, but there are also, well, great risks.

This book hopes to shed some light on these questions and more.

The professionals in this business must be extremely cautious when it comes to sharing information.

This book is about my journey into the world of Private Placements in publicly traded companies. My passion to write the book came from my personal experiences in discovering, researching, investing, and profiting in private placement investments of publicly traded companies. This is the story I want to share with you. In the book, I will explain what private placements are, where to find them, how to research the companies offering them, how to subscribe to participate in an offer, as well as a short-term and long-term strategy towards profiting from Free Shares, and maybe even a Keeper!
