Unless you are already wealthy, your first business needs to be making money right away. Therefore, you have to ask for money *immediately*. And if people refuse to give it to you, your idea sucks. People don’t actually need what you’re offering or they don’t trust you to deliver it. There are very few exceptions to this rule. If you can’t get money, you aren’t solving a problem. You need to go back to the drawing board.

Sometimes we use the words information and knowledge interchangeably, but they aren’t the same thing. Information is raw data in a given context. For instance, the fact that Microsoft bought some company for a billion dollars is just information, and there’s no shortage of information these days. Knowledge imparts meaning to that information. You apply your time, attention, and skill to information to produce knowledge. Looking at that particular Microsoft acquisition and knowing how it might change the market, provide new opportunities, and destroy others constitutes knowledge.
