How the Middle Class Misses Out on Venture Debt Funds

In episode 80 of Wealth Distribution with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna explore venture debt — a $50 billion asset class that nearly all middle-class investors can't access. While accredited investors park money in Silicon Valley Bank's old lending niche, earning 12-15% yields with less equity risk than typical VC, the rest of us are stuck with CDs and bond funds. Lucas breaks down how venture debt works, why it's structurally exclusive under Regulation D, and what a 2023 SEC proposal about expanding accredited investor definitions would mean for the gap. Luna asks the obvious question: is this just another rule rigged for the wealthy, or is there a real risk argument? They dig into the 2024 collapse of a mid-market venture debt fund as a cautionary tale. No clickbait, no hot takes — just a clear look at one more piece of the financial landscape that quietly widens the wealth gap. #VentureDebt #AccreditedInvestor #RegulationD #SEC #SiliconValleyBank #WealthGap #MiddleClass #PrivateCredit #YieldChasing #RiskManagement #FinancialExclusion #Economics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #WealthDistribution #EconomicMobility #Podcast #Finance Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
