So I came up with a new idea the other day, and due to my last project im short on funds. I will need about 15 grand to develop it, and some more for the marketing. The problem though is that I don't have 15 grand, and if I wait to save up all that money the opportunity may not be there anymore.
The market is worth hundreds of billions a year, and theres very little competition. I also meet a need that hasnt been met. Its easy to scale, and doesnt take much of my time.
Im at a bit of a crossroads now that I don't have the money. What would you do in this situation? Would you try raising the money working? Would you borrow money from family? Bring on a partner? Find an investor? Or just take on a ton of personal debt?
So far im looking at personal debt. I have a credit score above 750, and im thinking of applying for a ton of interest free cards. The plan is to pay them all off before the interest period. Im aware that its very risky as well. Any suggestions?
