So it sounds like you think you have the "glimpse of the future". Well, nothing is stopping you from doing it RIGHT NOW, instead of posting on HN about how you need money to do anything. When you think you have a good idea but not working on it, it probably means either: 1. you don't think the idea is good enough to risk your stable life; 2. you are too lazy to do it; 3. you don't want to risk regardless of how great of an idea you think it is. In every one of these cases, you're not cut out to be a founder--you just can't do the most important part--"then go build it". That's what makes "founders" special, they just do it instead of complaining how it can't be done.
