It's pretty obvious you haven't even bothered to do any research. Famo.us doesn't have a particularly good product, but it totally makes sense why they've been able to get funding - one of the cofounders of Famous sold a company for $100M. So to any VC it's a no-brainer to invest in him again.

Meteor has some really really smart people working on it, and they've repeatedly stated that they plan on monetizing by providing hosting/deployment services (a la WordPress). WordPress is a billion dollar company, in case you've forgotten.
