Devil's advocate win. I think your right, nobody is going to fund a 15 year for a lot reasons. I'll just have to find a reason that beats all the odds against me. :)

Fully though, I understand, but I'm still going to try my best. Hey, the worst that happens is they say no.

Absolutely - I'm the last person to say you can't do something. What I will do is suggest that you find a different route that allows you a higher chance of success. You're a few years away from being realistically fundable. Put your effort into getting there. Don't jump ahead - this is a LONG road.

You do have advantages - food, shelter, free time, support, enthusiasm, a lack of experience to cloud your thoughts. Use them.

A common mistake you'll see over and over again in business that people tend to focus on what isn't working. Don't do that. Focus your efforts where you are strong, not where you are weak. And right now, your fundability is very, very weak.

Best of luck!

Thanks!
