I'm an accredited investor. The amount I listed was the amount of my liquid cash I was looking to invest; entirely separate from my long term investments which are invested in places where I've already signed the paperwork assuring them I'm accredited etc.

If you're an accredited investor that's different. Just come to Demo Day at YC this August. (Send me an email to get an invitation.) Though some of the startups at DDay will go straight to series A rounds, most will raise angel money, and most of those would take investments as small as $20k.

Nice. Good luck!
