A story about how Moses Kagan, a real estate investor, raised significant capital through Twitter.
"Moses Kagan currently has $200 million under management. He started tweeting about his deals and got $40 million from his Twitter followers to invest in his fund. One guy gave him $20 million, and he found it through Twitter.
I flew down and met up with him, I thought he was great. He's got 1,000 investors, and Twitter 5x'ed his fund."
