Without an "Investment Capitalist" you are going to have a tough time.Keep your job, and save some money, and build your credit!

Venture capitalists only expect a 10% chance of their investment going big, and maybe another 20-30% chance of making money, let alone breaking even.

But yes my end game I suppose would be me being somewhat of a venture capitalist.

Of course I would have some "skin in the game", and the rest of the fiancing would come from venture capitalists.

Personally, I would think with money in a bank account there would be lenders willing to loan money on property if secured...this is a capitalist country...but the lending regulations may restrict them post 911.

I hate to say, but College is becoming less and less important in the capitalistic America we live in.  

Who has accessed that money in some other way (Equity Investor, Capital Debt, Angel Investor, Venture Capitalist, etc.)?

I'm a proud capitalist.  

The most successful person (Scott) I know personally growing up went to a podunk rural, no-name college, but went to do amazing things and now is a venture capitalist investing in new companies.   

Isnt most of this entire capitalist system based on faith of a fractional banking system?
