Looking for and being quite happy to get are two different things.

I'll happily take a 5x on any of my angel investments. I didn't go into them thinking that was the best possible (hoped for) case.

Getting 5x on all of them would be above my average.



I would also expect angel investors to be a little more understanding about slightly less than "MAX GROWTH NOW!!!!!", relative to a large VC firm, and less likely to force the founders into a path the founders don't want to take if the numbers aren't ideal..
