Amen!

I tried VC:s and didn't work (I pitched Netflix before Netflix and was told laws would crush it). Then I tried bootstrapping and getting customers and the veil was lifted from my eyes! Cannot recommend it enough. Don't waste time with VC:s, put that time into getting customers. If you are successful you can always sell the business to someone later on if/when you decide to retire or try something new.
