Investing in an idea that is not evolved or on the market is investment suicide based on normal investment protocol. In 2007, the federal government is offering $2.2 Billion in grants (a non-dilutive advantage) for new innovative research ideas from small high-tech businesses. Potential investors can observe and work with these companies to see the management team in action and check out the viability of the new invention, points out Russ Farmer, Executive Director of SBIR Colorado.

263 On Management: Who Gets Paid and Who Doesn't?
Pat Wiesner worked for a small publishing company a couple of years before he started his own. Pat was president and just one aspect of it made it really tough. He would get something like $50K to $60K on the average each week. The problem was that in that same time period he would receive $70K to $80K of bills. My job, along with the controller, was to decide who got paid and who didn’t. All Pat wanted was to have enough cash to pay the bills. Pat offers insights.
