I like the sentiment. And for the most part I do agree with you that many wantrepreneurs are looking for funding. There are a few who really can bring that vision to life though. Many of my friends have gone on to get funding without having any revenue. It's how well you can convince someone that the vision is possible.
That's a whole different discussion for another article. I'm of the opinion most people should not chase funding - especially without revenue. :)
