This week, something seismic happened in private markets. Jeff Bezos, Michael Dell, and Coatue’s Philippe Laffont announced a $1B tech fund that’s now accessible to individual investors — with minimums starting at just $50K.

Let that sink in.

The floodgates are opening. What used to require millions and insider access is now coming to retail. First Hamilton Lane launched the first truly retail private fund exclusively on Repubic with a $500 minimum and now Coatue offering access to its own unique offering at $50k (funds like these typically have minimums in the millions).

In this episode, Scott is joined by KingsCrowd's Head of Product, Brian Belley, to unpack the real impact of this new "public-private" trend — and how everyday investors (and fintech bros) can take advantage of this radically evolving market.

What they discussed:

- Why this marks the official arrival of the retail private equity era

- The pros, cons, and potential traps for new investors

- How to build a modern portfolio without getting wrecked by fees, hype, or fine print

- Why the next generation of private investing will blur the lines between public and private assets
