I've been doing startups for over 10 years and haven't raised any VC/angel money :). The chart is about when to ask for advice, not a chart to path your startup career. In any case, I do think you should seek advice if you are bootstrapping. You read it as seeking advice to raise money, whereas I meant seek advice generally about your startup. I think people benefit from having mentors, which I tried to write up here btw http://ye.gg/mentors http://ye.gg/mentors
