1) The
biggest surprise for me in this reading was the sheer amount of options there
are for obtaining money for a startup business. It goes a lot further than the
simple bank loans and debt financing.
2) The
main part of the reading that was confusing to me was the part about the
angels. I don’t really understand how one would find an angel or would become
one. It sounds like they are just really nice people.
3) Two
questions I would ask are:
a. What
is the best way to get money for a startup?
b. Why
would someone choose to become a venture capitalist?
4) I
disagree with the statement: “many new ventures find that debt financing is not
a choice but a necessity”. I believe that it would be a very good idea for some
people to save up money to start a new business if they can. If they can save
money they don’t have to worry about paying it back, they could just focus on
their business. I understand for some people it may be necessary but I don’t think
it should be generalized to “many”.
