it's true but you also need to be careful from the "friendly-but-not-investing-angel" syndrome.
This guy becomes someone who gives you good advices and connects you to other angels, but since you're so much fixed in his mind on the "help-me-I'm-clueless" position, he will never invest, and it will send a bad signal to his fellow angels.
so, do ask for advice, but don't make yourself look too desperate and unconfident.
Agree. However, a good side effect of being out there, talking to angels etc., is that you build up a gut feeling, so you learn whether conversations are going somewhere or not. Hopefully, over time, you won't stay clueless ;)
There was a song that started as following:
Ask for money, and get advice
Ask for advice, get money twice
