But most "Investors" ask about the amount of money you are making and refuse to talk to you if you are not making at least five million dollars a year. So if you are trying to get investments then you either need to be in a situation where you don't really need them or else you need to invent income...
Q: "Did you make $5M this year?"
A: "Yes we have $6M in the bank now" ...
Internal Accountant: "The bank called about your $8M line of credit" ...
