It really depends on what type of startup you are trying to create. If you are trying to create a high risk, high reward startup with million dollar cashouts (a potential 'unicorn'), then yes, you need a lot of capital.

If your plan is to create a sustainable small business, with a small number of employees and a reasonable but consistent rate of return, then you don't need a ton of capital.
