to be totally blunt, it sounds like you're at about the stage of most of those people who post ads on craigslist that we all laugh at: "i've got a great idea, all i need is somebody to implement it"

don't kid yourself - implementation is everything, and implementing properly is harder than you will ever imagine. if you don't even know how to code, you are nowhere near at a stage to quit your job unless you have savings to keep you afloat for at least a year. 10-15k to create your startup for you in a month or two is not a reasonable estimate.

I appreciate the reply. Feel free to be blunt. I never claimed to be an expert. However, I don't think I'm nearly as naive as any craigslist poster you suggest. But feel free to laugh at me if you'd like.

However, I am not kidding myself. I understand implementation is important. Perhaps I shouldn't have thrown out random numbers like that, but if you could give me some more reasonable estimates? Although I know you don't know what I am trying to create so it'd be difficult for you to give me an accurate estimate I suppose...
