About Long Angle

What is the backstory to Long Angle?

Long Angle was founded by two entrepreneurs after a significant liquidity event. They were looking for unbiased conversations about investing, family, and major financial decisions with peers in similar situations—and could not find a trusted community that met that standard. Long Angle was built to solve that gap.

How does Long Angle make money if membership is free?

Long Angle makes money primarily from optional investment vehicles: for syndicated offerings, it typically charges a 0.55–1.00% management fee. Membership itself is free, and no member is required to invest.

How is Long Angle different from TIGER 21?

TIGER 21 is a paid peer advisory board for people with at least $20 million in qualifying net worth. Members in North America pay $34,000 a year plus a $5,000 initiation fee, meet with the same 12 to 15 peers for a full day 11 times a year, and present their full portfolio to that group in their first year. Long Angle is free to join for founders, executives and investors with $3 million or more in investable assets, excluding a primary residence. Members choose how deeply to take part: online discussion, local events, the Annual Member Retreat, optional private-market investments, or a Trusted Circle. A Trusted Circle is six to eight members led by a professional moderator, meeting monthly for three hours by Zoom, at $4,500 a year with a 12-month commitment.
