In an IRA or only in a brokerage account?","answer":"Hi Davina! Actually SAFEs are not held in either brokerage accounts or IRA. SAFEs are a \"Simple Agreement for Future Equity,\" meaning that the amount and worth of the shares is determined at the next priced financing when the market will set the price of our preferred stock. Please see more details on how SAFEs operate here! help.wefunder.com/co…om_search=140529973"},{"question":"If you meet your goal, what would each share be worth ?","answer":"Hi Doreen! The worth of the shares is determined at the next priced financing when the market will set the price of our preferred stock. If the company is valued at over 24M, the value of your shares will be worth more than what you may choose to invest today.

Thank you so much for your inquiry! With a SAFE there is no payout frequency - in the event of an IPO or sale, you would be paid out as an owner of the company!
