Closing the Sunday trend “Startups vs. investors "

    We develop and, hopefully, close the Sunday Sunday trend “Startups vs. investors, or selling ideas. ”

    In his article Ideas, money and greedy children, Devich cites Anton, Nikolai and Mikhail as an example, and tells beautifully how cautious Kolya was left to sit on his idea and without money, and the risky Anton sold the car and laid the apartment in the end got into the ladies.

    In the same way, you can come up with a dozen more stories about these three men, in one of which Kolya revealed his plans to Misha, and Misha threw Kolya, hiring Anton and implementing Colin's idea. And in another story, Anton lost his apartment, because Misha had appropriated the whole business, and Anton was offered to sit on a salary, and then completely dismissed him. In the third story, Misha refused both Kolya and Anton, Kolya went to work for his uncle and thought further about his idea, and Anton, having received no investments, gradually went through the entire loan for his apartment, his business stalled, the bank took the apartment away, and he became depressed, has drunk and is now homeless in the Southwest.
    Devich asks what these stories teach us? And nothing, since they are sucked from the finger, and the article is unfounded slightly more than completely.

    No less funny are the comments of Devich opponents who claim that the ideas of money are worth it.
    In their position, to sell the idea, and not its implementation, they are close to the so-called "copyrights", so "beloved" on Habré. In this sense, “copyrights” are even more honest - they at least realized their “idea” (recorded music, made a film, released software, developed a technology, invested in promotion), and then they receive (they want to receive) money without doing anything else.
    While our spaceships are plowing the Bolshoi Theater, the progressive world is fighting copywriters for freedom of information, these irresponsible habratovarischi are trying to [inspire us to think] to sell ideas.

    If your idea is really worth the money, and you do not trust cunning investors, then sell the car, lay the flat (like Anton :), borrow money from your parents and friends and realize your Idea! After all, it costs money, and will certainly pay off. :)
    Do not want to? Are you afraid There are no ideas, but hunting is just to chill? Well, it means that your comments are unfounded a little more than completely.

    In life, everything is much more diverse and interesting, and there are no ready-made answers. It is possible that there are ideas that are so ingenious and new, but simple to implement, that they need to be kept secret and developed at your own expense by laying the last ports, as any good manager with money hiring specialists who can hire specialists will be able to realize your idea faster and better than you - such ideas cost millions. Perhaps there are ideas that occurred to almost everyone, but no one has yet thought of realizing it qualitatively - such ideas do not cost anything, but your project that implements the idea is much better than competitors - it costs money.

    So in fact ... in fact, my whole post is a little more than completely unfounded.

    I did it for the lulz :)

    I propose to close this holivorny topic and enjoy the rest of Sunday, preparing for a productive work week!
