		<description>Sanjay,

#4 and #6 go hand in hand. I&#039;ve talked about bootstrapping before, it&#039;s definitely the way to go for most new startups, particularly in the technology arena. Some businesses (take retail) often require much more upfront investment and ongoing investment, so #4 is still important -- to have that cushion. But the cushion implies keeping the burn rate low; cause you won&#039;t survive 2 months if you&#039;re spending like crazy.

Thanks for stopping by and commenting. Hope to see you around in the future...and now I&#039;ll go take a look at your blog!</description>

		<description>I&#039;ll add a number 6: keep your burn rate so low, it&#039;s essentially on the floor.  That way, #4 becomes nearly moot.
