Be a Community Wealth Builder
We’re on a mission to help people painlessly build wealth while supporting communities.
Join us in changing the face of finance
Imagine how different our communities would look if 50% of our investments were made within 50 miles of our homes. Moving capital from Wall Street to Main Street means shifting power. When we have a stake in our communities, we are more engaged, we exercise our voices, and can reduce the influence of the bigger power brokers. Investing outside of Wall Street allows us to direct our investment dollars towards challenges that need solving closer to home, whether that’s contributing to the funding gap for entrepreneurs or financing important solutions like affordable housing. This type of community capital creates a ripple effect - cities see increases in jobs, transit, grocery stores, shopping, dining, and entrepreneurship. One of the most important choices we have is where we put our money.
Worthy Wealth was launched to harness the power of the crowd – to bring higher-yielding, community-based investments to the masses - while offering people a more secure financial future in the process. We’d love for you to join us.
Isn't it time that the 98% have a better way to build a nest egg?
Not your Grandmother's Bond
Most of us have heard of the old "U.S Savings bonds" that grandparents would give kids on their birthday – by purchasing those bonds, the bondholder is lending money to the government and in just 30 short years they are repaid! Luckily times have changed.
Our bonds at Worthy are digital-only, $10.00 bonds designed to be a way everyday people can earn a solid return – while lending money to community real estate projects. The bonds are corporate bonds, issued by Worthy Wealth subsidiaries, and are backed by portfolios of residential real estate. The bonds are bought and sold with no fees, no friction through an easy-to-use mobile app…and you don’t have to wait 30 years for them to mature!
Putting Worthy Bond Proceeds to Work
When you buy our bonds, the bond sale proceeds are put to work helping developers get their properties in "build ready" status so we can bring more housing to American families. Specifically, we are investing the money to cover the infrastructure development (land preparation, road paving, utilities, and electrical installation) for starter homes strategically located in high-growth suburban markets across the southeast.
Worthy has teamed up with experienced and successful developers who handle all aspects of the "horizontal development" (preparing the buildable lots) for national homebuilders so they can focus on constructing and selling homes without the complexities of land development. The homebuilders have contractually guaranteed the purchase for the fully-developed, single family lots that the Worthy Housing bonds help to fund.
While Worthy still does in-depth underwriting and analysis, this business model allows us to make and service a larger number of loans and investments while controlling overhead.
The U.S. housing market is short 6.5 million homes so our bond sales can play a role in filling this need!
Meet Worthy Wealth
How Does It Work?
Most of us know the benefit of eating locally grown foods – they are fresh, full of nutrients, and contribute to our overall health and wellness. But what about nourishing our financial wellness while also fueling our local economies? Community ownership is a rewarding way to build this financial health.
These days, many investors are demanding more than profit from their investment portfolios. They don't just want investments to do well financially, they want them to do good socially. This is where Worthy Wealth comes in!
Worthy is a wealth building platform that helps users painlessly grow a nest egg while benefiting from the security of investments in community real estate. When customers buy our bonds, they are playing a critical role in providing homes for families.
Where do the bonds come from? The bonds are structured by Worthy Wealth and are then submitted to the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission), which reviews and then qualifies them for public sale. The bond sale proceeds are then invested in community real estate projects and we share the interest earned on those loans and investments with our bondholders. This means the bonds are backed by portfolios of real estate assets.
Along with aiming to offer an attractive yield to investors, our business model is more robust for Worthy as a venture than the "traditional" investment apps which primarily rely on charging small management or transaction fees paid by their customers. Worthy’s model allows us to remain free for customers as we generate our returns through interest earned on the loans and investments we make.
Worthy empowers a new generation of investors to get the growth, yield and access to innovation they deserve while unleashing the power of community capital.
Where you invest your money matters.
“We have an obligation to be active in the issues of our time…in my case, I’m trying to help people build financial security while making our communities stronger”. - CEO, Sally Outlaw

* Under Agreement to be Acquired
The Worthy Wealth Companies
Although Worthy Wealth is a newly formed entity, it follows a company founded by the same team, operating in the same industry.
Worthy Wealth is beginning its business operations with the launch of "Worthy Wealth Housing Bonds". Worthy is partnering with developers to offer a new high yield bond - paying 9% (increasing to 10% if held more than 3 years) - the proceeds of which will primarily fund the land purchase and infrastructure installation for homesites across the Carolinas.
Launching an Equity Model
Worthy intends to supplement its fixed-income bonds with equity securities offerings, aiming to provide a higher return to customers, and additional sources of revenue for Worthy.
In addition to the high yield generated by its lending activities, under this model Worthy Wealth would have a profit participation in the operating business of its real estate partners. Our first offering under this model - Worthy Wealth Senior Living - has recently cleared SEC review.
Worthy Wealth has also entered into an agreement to acquire two cash-flowing (400k/month) private bond entities, and their associated 40M investment portfolios, from another industry participant so if the company chooses to close on the acquisition those assets will also belong to Worthy Wealth.
Serving our Worthy Wealth Community
In addition to selling our securities, we are working on other ways to bring value to our Worthy community members. We are doing this through:
- Building out more educational resources
- Hosting both live and virtual community capital events
- Offering additional products and services of interest to our customers
- Creating a points program to engage and reward our Worthy bondholders
These additional activities will not only provide the company with additional revenue streams but an opportunity for our members to further build their nest eggs while deepening their relationship to our brand. Part of the proceeds from this raise will go towards building out of this new member benefits program.
Being Worthy has its perks!

Why we are a Worthy Investment
Worthy Wealth combines a financial product (high yielding, interest bearing securities) with an inventive delivery tool (a round-up app) making it easy for anyone to save and invest.
We believe Worthy bonds are one of the few, higher-yielding financial products open to the retail investor that supports "Main Street" not Wall Street - therefore offering a social return in addition to a financial one.
Additionally, unlike many investing apps, we own the underlying financial vehicles, the Worthy securities. These are proprietary products that we engineer and are in the process of qualifying for sale with the SEC so this provides a bit of a barrier to entry to other competitors given the complex federal and state regulatory qualification process.
We will also use a proprietary technology platform for handling the digital bond management and sales which adds additional value to our venture.
As we expand our offerings, services, number of registered users, and number of bondholders (all expected to increase our enterprise value), we will continue to explore alternative sources of liquidity for our shareholders. Management intends to pursue an exit strategy that maximizes shareholder value which could include either an initial public offering or acquisition by a larger company.₂
Micro-Invest

Painlessly Save

Large Market

Generous Interest

Alternative Investments Go Mainstream
Alternative investments are rapidly moving into the mainstream. Retail investors, confronted with volatile financial markets and the underfunding of their own retirements, are now following the path blazed by wealthy individuals and institutional investors in seeking a better financial return. These classes of investors had access to a variety of higher-yielding, investment opportunities then the masses were allowed to have - such as stock in growing private companies and lending money to private, creditworthy businesses or developers. This changed with the passing of The JOBS ACT in 2012, which altered long-standing securities laws and opened up these types of alternative investments for the rest of us.
Fueled in part by these new laws, a distrust of old guard financial institutions, and investors growing desire to have their money make a social impact, we believe both borrowers and investors are flocking to alternative, and more community focused, financial products to meet their capital needs and to diversify their portfolios. A study by State Street, indicates a continuing trend of shifting from public markets to private assets within portfolio allocations. More than a third of institutions (36 percent) have already allocated over half of their portfolio to private market investments, a number expected to rise to 41 percent within the next three to five years. Additionally, 59 percent of institutions have allocated at least 30 percent to private markets, with projections reaching 71 percent by 2028. Worthy is already playing a part in this historical shift towards private market investment opportunities.
Bottom line is we believe the 98% need access to higher yields and a more stable financial return and Worthy creates products to help.
Why Alternative Investments Are Worthy
According to the CFA Institute, one of the important rules of portfolio management is to combine assets that make money independently and don't correlate with one another. Having investments in areas that react differently to the same event (such as a political development or a global pandemic) can balance an investor's risk and protect against loss.
Investors Need Diversification. A blended portfolio of traditional (such as stocks) and alternative investments (such as real estate, precious meals, private lending, etc) can offer benefits in performance and a reduction in volatility.
Portfolios Need Non-Correlation. To protect from market swings, investors need assets in their portfolios that don't directly correlate to movements in traditional investments such as stocks and ETF's.
Since diversifying investments across asset classes can improve your chances of not losing your money, Worthy's fixed interest bonds can be an attractive addition to a diverse portfolio.
We Are a Worthy Team
We are all in this for the right reasons so we are motivated and passionate about addressing financial inequities and about helping our clients thrive.
Aside from this, our management team has backgrounds that align with our product - including the fact that the founder was a registered investment advisor and pioneer in the online crowdfunding industry. Our Chief Operating Officer was a securities lawyer and former investment banker. All of our current executives were responsible for designing, bringing to market and selling over $250,000,000 in private market bonds prior to launching Worthy Wealth* and are leaders in the industry.
But it's the team's intangible assets that ensure our ability to execute successfully - such as character, integrity, sincerity, creativity, humor, tenacity, and problem solving. And we have strong chemistry as a team. We eat, sleep and breathe our product and mission and will not stop until our products are in everyone's hands!
The Numbers
We’re on a mission to help people painlessly save and grow their money – and to do it in a way that better aligns with their values and lifestyle.

Join Us in Offering Economic Opportunity for All
We want to help lift the financial burden off those who suffer from this stress. One of the few ways to grow a financial cushion is through access to higher-yielding investment returns but these asset classes are normally only reserved for the wealthy so we used new securities regulations to create a product that would be open to ALL. This is also about fairness - for 80 years the securities laws kept retail investors from accessing opportunities for real financial growth.
We invite you to join us on our mission to create a more equitable economy.
Commonly Asked Questions
What is Worthy Wealth?
We are a financial technology company that offers a community investment and wealth building platform. Our platform will give investors the opportunity to invest as little as $10 and earn 7%-15% interest, without having to pay any fees, through the purchase of Worthy bonds. The proceeds from the bond sales will be used to make secured loans and investments to real estate developers and the interest earned is shared with holders of Worthy Wealth securities.
Why was Worthy Wealth created?
People need a better way to build their wealth. Worthy was created to level the financial playing field and to support our fellow humans by offering an alternative way for them to painlessly grow their nest egg while supporting community real estate projects.
Why hasn't this type of investment always been available to investors?
Our national securities laws changed in 2012 as part of what was called The JOBS ACT and these updated laws opened private market investing opportunities to more Americans. Given this, entities such as Worthy Wealth are able to use a section of those laws - called Regulation A+ - to engineer new financial products for the masses. The majority of Americans can now potentially benefit from a better financial return as they have access to a wider variety of higher-yielding, private market investment vehicles like the Worthy Wealth bonds that will be sold using the fintech platform.
How long has Worthy Wealth been in business?
Although Worthy Wealth was only created in the last year, it followed a company founded by the same team operating in the same industry. The team not only has decades of experience in the financial industry but also specifically with selling over $250,000,000 in similar products to retail investors.
Who are your competitors?
While there are other technology companies offering digital investing and wealth solutions, currently none that we know of offer the types of high-yieldng, community-based investments such as the Worthy Housing Bonds and the preferred equity products we envision - particularly ones that are open to all US investors.
How do you make money?
The loans and investments our subsidiaries will make with the proceeds from the sales of our securities have a greater interest rate than the interest rate returned to Worthy Wealth bondholders. The Worthy Wealth companies will use the difference between the interest we generate and the rate we pay our community members to operate, while keeping returns consistent for our Worthies.
How do bondholders make investments?
Our platform will offer 3 ways to help bondholders save and invest. Community members can purchase bonds at any time manually through our “Buy Bonds” button. Alternatively to buying bonds on demand, they can auto invest through our “Round Ups” and “Recurring Investment” tools. The “Round Up” investment option works by monitoring a customer’s daily purchase transactions and tracking the difference between their purchase and the next whole dollar (so on a $2.50 purchase, .50 cents is tracked). A bond is triggered for the customer’s account each time the “spare change” from these purchases reaches the $10. bond buying threshold. Additionally, our “Recurring Investment” tool allows them to schedule their purchases daily, weekly, bi-weekly or monthly so they can invest without always having to remember to do so!
How does the investment process work to invest in Worthy Wealth's RegA offering?
You click the “Invest” button on this website and it will lead you through the purchase process - including identification verification. Once you have completed the online process of buying shares, you will be notified within 5 business days to fund the investment. Your shares will be issued and you will officially become a shareholder generally in several days, but could take up to 21 days of your funds being received and verified. As a new Worthy Wealth investor, you will receive a welcome email from our Transfer Agent (KoreTransfer) with details of your Worthy account when your shares are issued.
How do I see and keep track of my shares once I buy them?
A transfer agent is a financial services company that manages and keeps track of registered shareholders for companies that issue stock. Our transfer agent is, KoreTransfer so they will handle the recordkeeping, reporting and communications for our shareholders. They will manage the official listing of all registered shares and shareholders, including the shareholder's name and contact information, along with records of dividends paid (if any) and other important shareholder information. You will have your own account and dashboard on the KoreTransfer platform to view your shares and to receive communication from us like any investor updates.
What’s the difference between the Worthy Wealth bonds and Worthy Wealth shares?
Worthy Wealth bonds are a debt product that pay a fixed annual interest and can be cashed in over a specified time period. Worthy Wealth shares are an equity product where you are purchasing an ownership stake in the company. The shares are not yet publicly traded as Worthy Wealth is a private company so the shares are not yet liquid - meaning you can’t “cash them in” at will. The hope is that as you hold the shares, they will increase in value and that a liquidity event such as the company being acquired or going public will happen in the not-too-distant future. There are also new secondary trading platforms emerging where private company shares can be bought and sold so this may be an additional channel for liquidity.₃
How can I cancel my investment??
There are no cancellation or refunds available for investments made in this offering. Applicants are not charged for the investment until the personal information they have provided in order to purchase this investment has been vetted and approved.

Painless Ways to Buy Worthy Bonds
Not your
Grandmother's Bond
Most of us have heard of the old "U.S Savings bonds" that grandparents would give kids on their birthday – by purchasing those bonds, the bondholder is lending money to the government and in just 30 short years they are repaid! Luckily times have changed.
Our bonds at Worthy are digital-only, $10.00 bonds designed to be a way everyday people can earn a solid return – while lending money to community real estate projects. The bonds are corporate bonds, issued by Worthy Wealth subsidiaries, and are backed by portfolios of residential real estate. The bonds are bought and sold with no fees, no friction through an easy-to-use mobile app…and you don’t have to wait 30 years for them to mature!
Putting Worthy Bond Proceeds to Work
The first investment product we intend to bring to market, called "Worthy Housing Bonds", is just $10, and offers a 9% annual yield (increasing to 10% if held beyond 3 years) so everyone has the chance to start building a more secure financial future.
When you buy our bonds, the bond sale proceeds are put to work helping developers get their properties in "build ready" status so we can bring more housing to American families. Specifically, we are investing the money to cover the infrastructure development (land preparation, road paving, utilities, and electrical installation) for starter homes strategically located in high-growth suburban markets across the southeast.
Worthy has teamed up with experienced and successful developers and servicing partners who handle all aspects of the "horizontal development" (preparing the buildable lots) for national homebuilders so they can focus on constructing and selling homes without the complexities of land development. The homebuilders have contractually guaranteed the purchase price for the fully-developed, single family lots that the Worthy Housing bonds help to fund.
While Worthy still does in-depth underwriting and analysis, this business model allows us to make and service a larger number of loans and investments while controlling overhead.
The U.S. housing market is short 6.5 million homes so our bond sales can play a role in filling this need!
Meet Worthy
How Does It Work?
Most of us know the benefit of eating locally grown foods – they are fresh, full of nutrients, and contribute to our overall health and wellness. So, what about nourishing our financial wellness while also fueling our local economies? Community ownership is a rewarding way to build this financial health.
These days, many investors are demanding more than profit from their investment portfolios. They don't just want investments to do well financially, they want them to do good socially.
This is where Worthy Wealth comes in!
Worthy is a wealth building platform that helps users painlessly grow a nest egg while benefiting from the security of investments in community real estate. When customers buy our bonds, they are playing a critical role in providing homes for families.
Where do the bonds come from? The bonds are structured by Worthy Wealth and are then submitted to the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission), which reviews and then qualifies them for public sale. The bond sale proceeds are lent out for community real estate projects and we then share the interest earned on those loans with our bondholders. This means the bonds are backed by portfolios of hard real estate.
Along with our intention to offer an attractive yield to investors, this business model is more robust for Worthy than the "traditional" investment apps which primarily rely on charging small management or transaction fees paid by their customers. Worthy’s model allows us to remain free for customers as we generate our returns through interest earned on the loans we make.
Worthy empowers a new generation of investors to get the growth, yield and access to innovation they deserve while unleashing the power of community capital.
Where you invest your money matters.

Why We Are a Worthy Investment
Worthy Wealth combines a financial product (high yielding, interest bearing securities) with an inventive delivery tool (a round-up app) making it easy for anyone to save and invest.
We believe that Worthy bonds are one of the few, higher-yielding financial products open to the retail investor that support "Main Street" not Wall Street - therefore offering a social return in addition to a financial one.
Additionally, unlike many investing apps, we own the underlying financial vehicles, the Worthy securities.

We will also use a proprietary technology platform for handling the digital bond management and sales which adds additional value to our venture.
As we expand our offerings, services, number of registered users, and number of bondholders (all expected to increase our enterprise value), we will continue to explore alternative sources of liquidity for our shareholders.

Alternative Investments Go Mainstream
Alternative investments are rapidly moving into the mainstream. Retail investors, confronted with volatile financial markets and the underfunding of their own retirements, are now following the path blazed by wealthy individuals and institutional investors in seeking a better financial return. These classes of investors had access to a variety of higher-yielding, investment opportunities then the masses were allowed to have - such as stock in growing private companies and lending money to private, creditworthy businesses or developers. This changed with the passing of The JOBS ACT in 2012, which altered long-standing securities laws and opened up these types of alternative investments for the rest of us.
Fueled in part by these new laws, a distrust of old guard financial institutions, and investors growing desire to have their money make a social impact, we believe both borrowers and investors are flocking to alternative, and more community focused, financial products to meet their capital needs and to diversify their portfolios. A study by State Street, indicates a continuing trend of shifting from public markets to private assets within portfolio allocations. More than a third of institutions (36 percent) have already allocated over half of their portfolio to private market investments, a number expected to rise to 41 percent within the next three to five years. Additionally, 59 percent of institutions have allocated at least 30 percent to private markets, with projections reaching 71 percent by 2028. Worthy is already playing a part in this historical shift towards private market investment opportunities.
Bottom line is we believe the 98% need access to higher yields and a more stable financial return and Worthy creates products to help.
Why Alternative Investments Are Worthy
According to the CFA Institute, one of the important rules of portfolio management is to combine assets that make money independently and don't correlate with one another. Having investments in areas that react differently to the same event (such as a political development or a global pandemic) can balance an investor's risk and protect against loss.
Investors Need Diversification. A blended portfolio of traditional (such as stocks) and alternative investments (such as real estate, precious meals, private lending, etc) can offer benefits in performance and a reduction in volatility.
Portfolios Need Non-Correlation. To protect from market swings, investors need assets in their portfolios that don't directly correlate to movements in traditional investments such as stocks and ETF's.
Since diversifying investments across asset classes can improve your chances of not losing your money, Worthy's fixed interest bonds can be an attractive addition to a diverse portfolio.
We Are a Worthy Team
We are all in this for the right reasons so we are motivated and passionate about addressing financial inequities and about helping our clients thrive.
Aside from this, our management team has backgrounds that align with our product - including the fact that the founder was a registered investment advisor and pioneer in the online crowdfunding industry. Our Chief Operating Officer was a securities lawyer and former investment banker. All of our current executives were responsible for designing, bringing to market and selling over $250,000,000* in private market bonds prior to launching Worthy Wealth and are leaders in the industry.
But it's the team's intangible assets that ensure our ability to execute successfully - such as character, integrity, sincerity, creativity, humor, tenacity, and problem solving. And we have strong chemistry as a team. We eat, sleep and breathe our product and mission and will not stop until Worthy is in everyone's hands!

Join Us in Offering Economic Opportunity for All
We want to help lift the financial burden off those who suffer from this stress. One of the few ways to grow a financial cushion is through access to higher-yielding investment returns but these asset classes are normally only reserved for the wealthy so we used new securities regulations to create a product that would be open to ALL. This is also about fairness - for 80 years the securities laws kept retail investors from accessing opportunities for real financial growth.
We invite you to join us on our mission to create a more equitable economy.
Commonly Asked Questions
What is Worthy Wealth?
We are a financial technology company that offers a community investment and wealth building platform. Our platform will give investors the opportunity to invest as little as $10 and earn 7%-15% interest, without having to pay any fees, through the purchase of Worthy bonds. The proceeds from the bond sales will be used to make secured loans and investments to real estate developers and the interest earned is shared with holders of Worthy Wealth securities.
Why was Worthy Wealth created?
People need a better way to build their wealth. Worthy was created to level the financial playing field and to support our fellow humans by offering an alternative way for them to painlessly grow their nest egg while supporting community real estate projects.
Why hasn't this type of investment always been available to investors?
Our national securities laws changed in 2012 as part of what was called The JOBS ACT and these updated laws opened private market investing opportunities to more Americans. Given this, entities such as Worthy Wealth are able to use a section of those laws - called Regulation A+ - to engineer new financial products for the masses. The majority of Americans can now potentially benefit from a better financial return as they have access to a wider variety of higher-yielding, private market investment vehicles like the Worthy Wealth bonds that will be sold using the fintech platform.
How long has Worthy Wealth been in business?
Although Worthy Wealth was only created in the last year, it followed a company founded by the same team operating in the same industry. The team not only has decades of experience in the financial industry but also specifically with selling over $250,000,000 in similar products to retail investors.
Who are your competitors?
While there are other technology companies offering digital investing and wealth solutions, currently none that we know of offer community-based investments such as the Worthy Housing Bonds and the preferred equity products we envision - particularly ones that are open to all US investors.
How do you make money?
The loans and investments our subsidiaries will make with the proceeds from the sales of our securities have a greater interest rate than the interest rate returned to Worthy Wealth bondholders. The Worthy Wealth companies will use the difference between the interest we generate and the rate we pay our community members to operate, while keeping returns consistent for our Worthies.
How do bondholders make investments?
Our platform will offer 3 ways to help bondholders save and invest. Community members can purchase bonds at any time manually through our “Buy Bonds” button. Alternatively to buying bonds on demand, they can auto invest through our “Round Ups” and “Recurring Investment” tools. The “Round Up” investment option works by monitoring a customer’s daily purchase transactions and tracking the difference between their purchase and the next whole dollar (so on a $2.50 purchase, .50 cents is tracked). A bond is triggered for the customer’s account each time the “spare change” from these purchases reaches the $10. bond buying threshold. Additionally, our “Recurring Investment” tool allows them to schedule their purchases daily, weekly, bi-weekly or monthly so they can invest without always having to remember to do so!
How does the investment process work to buy shares of Worthy Wealth?
You click the “Invest” button on this website and it will lead you through the purchase process - including identification verification. Once you have completed the online process of buying shares, you will be notified within 5 business days to fund the investment. Your shares will be issued and you will officially become a shareholder generally in several days, but could take up to 21 days of your funds being received and verified. As a new Worthy Wealth investor, you will receive a welcome email from our Transfer Agent (KoreTransfer) with details of your Worthy account when your shares are issued.
For the investment participation element (to participate in our real estate projects @14% APY), when an investment is approved by our Commitment Committee, a percentage of the investment amount will be reserved for the group of equity investors and will be allocated among them based on their pro-rata interest in the program. You will receive an email inviting you to participate with details on each approved investment.
How do I see and keep track of my shares once I buy them?
A transfer agent is a financial services company that manages and keeps track of registered shareholders for companies that issue stock. Our transfer agent is, KoreTransfer so they will handle the recordkeeping, reporting and communications for our shareholders. They will manage the official listing of all registered shares and shareholders, including the shareholder's name and contact information, along with records of dividends paid (if any) and other important shareholder information. You will have your own account and dashboard on the KoreTransfer platform to view your shares and to receive communication from us like any investor updates.
What’s the difference between the Worthy bonds and Worthy shares?
Worthy Wealth bonds are a debt product that pay a fixed annual interest and can be cashed in over a specified time period. Worthy Wealth shares are an equity product where you are purchasing an ownership stake in the company. The shares are not yet publicly traded as Worthy Wealth is a private company so the shares are not yet liquid - meaning you can’t “cash them in” at will. The hope is that as you hold the shares, they will increase in value and that a liquidity event such as the company being acquired or going public will happen in the not-too-distant future.2 There are also new secondary trading platforms emerging where private company shares can be bought and sold so this may be an additional channel for liquidity.3
How can I cancel my investment??
There are no cancellation or refunds available for investments made in this offering. Applicants are not charged for the investment until the personal information they have provided in order to purchase this investment has been vetted and approved.
