This article has a point, warning of some dangers of taking risk capital, but it is too biased against it: better, more balanced advice would be to say: there are use cases for risk capital, but there are also many use cases where bootstrapping or debt capital (taking a loan, borrowing money) is the right financing approach instead.

It all depends on how capital intensive your business is, and how fast you want or must grow to become how large.
