So what, just because there are investors they didn’t start in a garage? Anyone with a good idea and a plan can get funding from VCs after booting up the idea.
What’s wrong with you people? Seriously.
What are you trying to prove exactly? That no one can start a company? Everyone can it costs pennies. No one can get funding with a good idea and hard work? Anyone can and everyone does and I’ve seen this with my own eyes (recently I saw two brothers get 8 million USD funding for a freaking dumb NFT project). That no one can succeed except with connections? Not true, and examples are everywhere, including big tech today. What’s the mission here exactly? Because the mission I see here is encouraging people to not even try and just be lazy because “there’s no point”.
What am I trying to prove? I’m trying to prove that anyone working hard has a chance, but sitting your ass and being lazy will give you no chance.
Because you don’t know the personal examples I know. You can look up statistics of small businesses and startups and learn how to get funding. I think the average exit from a successful startup is in the 10s of millions USD after 5 years of work. It needs hard work, and it’s not easy, because no one is gonna invest in your project unless you’re dedicated. BUT, it’s totally possible and I’ve seen it tons of times. I’ve seen idiots get more than $15 million funding. Some fail, some succeed. In fact the majority fail, but while they’re failing they learn, and VCs have interest in investing because their expected returns based on statistics are higher than their investment on average.
There’s so much work to be done before calling it quits, especially for someone who doesn’t know what a VC is and how it works.

Would you like a copy of my passport too? Nice try.
And just in good faith I’ll tell you again: The internet is flooded with stats on startups. You don’t need to dox me here to get that information.
