Bootsrapped or VC?

If I wanted to work to make somebody else rich, I'd get a job.

Really depends on the product and what your goals are. If you think you can bootstrap then I'd go for it! I was on the fence, but decided to try to bootstrap first and I'm really happy I did :)

I wish there’s a golden answer.

It really depends on your team structure (even though team of one), agility, scalability, business model.

I often hear a lot question like this, I made a little project to help answering.

Bootstrapped!
