Yuri Milner, SV Angel Offer Every New Y Combinator Startup $150k
I think this is fantastic.  Whether it is this $150k or the great number of startups that are getting huge funding early on, it all means one thing... it is GREAT for business and competition.<p>I've heard from quite a few people who say this is a negative thing and they say it defeats the idea of being a startup.  My question is, why do you HAVE to start in a garage? Why do you HAVE to eat Ramen noodles for 2 years? At the end of the day, being a startup is about having a creative team and being innovative.<p>This is a great step forward and if it helps a few more teams create a killer product then we all win.
