Joe - I believe you can take your paper value of equity in Virtualmin to count towards being a "high net worth individual".

So you probably do qualify if there is any sort of valuation event for Virtualmin that sets your equity at a high enough value. I know lots of founders that do this.



Good thought, Immad. I hadn't even considered that. However, we haven't raised any additional funding after YC, so our valuation is indeterminate from a legal perspective (or way too low, since the YC money valued us at something like 300k five years ago), I guess? We'd only have revenues to go on, which would comfortably value us in the right sphere, but without a funding round or exit of some sort, I'm not sure how else to make that valuation stick.


I think accreditation requires liquid wealth >$2m. It specifically disqualifies primary residence value.
