@theinvestdude,
I've been told that before, though I have gotten teams together to work on other projects. I'm not asking anyone to do stuff for free; just people to understand and believe in what I'm doing.
Someone told me a long time ago that no one will ever believe in your project more than you do, so if you can't iterate your goals and get people excited by the excitement you have for it, it's probably not worth doing.
I appreciate your take, and you're definitely not wrong...
