You have a lot to thank Ashton Kutcher for.

The “That ‘70s Show” actor’s A-Grade Investments put money into Uber, Airbnb, Spotify, Shazam, and Soundcloud. In 2010, Kutcher cofounded the venture-capital firm, which invests in technology startups (“problem solvers,” he said), with entertainment manager Guy Oseary.

In 2011, The New York Times reported that the investments likely ranged from $50,000 to $200,000. TechTimes reported that he had $100 million worth of investments in 2014. So it’s not hard to understand why he tried to do some free promotion on “Two and a Half Men.”
