In their passion to succeed, too many entrepreneurs treat friends and family investments as “low-hanging” fruit, only to find out later, after a stumble, that the pain of lost relationships is greater than the loss of their beloved startup. Other entrepreneurs never start their adventure, because they can’t face the prospect of even approaching friends and family for an investment kick-start.

I like the photo of the former boxer, George Foreman. I bought his toast grill! ;) Do you know how he got funded?

If you can't get support from your friends and family, is the only option to approach the so-called fools? Do you think that micro-lending and crowdfunding will increase this route?
