For #1: investing in the company I founded is definitely a privilege. The investor obviously thinks that my company would provide a better return than investing elsewhere. High rates of return are not easy to find, hence it's a privilege to invest in the company I founded, in the vision I am creating.
Disclaimer: I am not actually founding a company, nor have I in the past, nor am I likely to build a company that requires VC investment, but this is what my attitude would be if I were.

And you obviously think taking the VC's money is more valuable than taking a bank loan/cash advance/going with another VC. Both sides have something to gain. Only thing is, if you're looking for VC money you need the money. The VC doesn't need to invest in you.
