We are in the same boat. Our competitors have investors, what do we have instead? Profit, more of it every month and no investors to answer to. #winning

Same here (boostrapped, profitable). It's a great feeling, but it's annoying that people still ask if we're looking for funding.
We actually haven't been approached about funding by anyone, which is ironic considering we are actually very profitable. But then again, investors seem to love unprofitable investments for some reason. But that is a good thing. Being bootstrapped means more money in my pocket and nobody to answer to except my business partners, not an outside investor.
