If you're a developer, you shouldn't need rich friends or family to save up a $20k investment for yourself.

That's not true in all circumstances.

There are many amazing developers who have mental problems, or other disabilities, that prevent them from working full time.

Nothing is wrong with these people. Some of them are even on government disability. They essentially have no money.

Are they or their ideas worthless?
