I didn’t say no route to get investor money back - but some things require a large capital investment to get started. Are you suggesting everything worth doing can be bootstrapped?
- quickthrower2 3y agoThe fusion example is extreme. That sort of thing needs government funding. But say you want to make a new gadget, yeah you would find it hard to bootstrap unless you are already a multimillion dollar company.
- spacecadet 3y agoEven gadgets can be bootstrapped, I have several toys I could productize tomorrow that cost me very little to prototype.
- TaylorAlexander 3y agoSure I’m bootstrapping a small toy now. But to suggest that every single business idea worth building right now can be bootstrapped - I don’t see it.
- pyb 3y agoWhy not ? Boostrapping + Kickstarter for instance is a well trodden path at this point.
- quickthrower2 3y agoI didn’t consider kickstarter. Good point.
