    a fundamental misunderstanding about how to build a company. (video 1hour
    with Naval Ravikant) Many people think that the right way is raising $1
    million from angels, then prove that you have something – only then go to
    VCs for a Series A. This is the classic startup financing model (and it
    fails).

    There’s a better way to raise:
    $50,000 to build your product and launch it (accelerator style)
    $500,000 to prove you can reach escape velocity
    $1.5 million to get to profitability
    It just doesn’t take as much money to build a profitable, successful
    company anymore. via

    excellent AngelList / Naval Ravikant interview! Tremendous insight
