For sure, and I forgot about domain/sector/field expertise. If you're asking HN for literally any idea, that means you're going to be jumping into a new domain with only a few weeks of "research" via Google. You can't hire a good domain expert who will help you avoid all the pitfalls with a total budget of $150k.

The easiest thing in the world is to find plausible reasons why a given startup won't succeed. Even easier is finding reasons why any startup won't succeed!

Just as easy as blowing your friends and family's money, I suppose.
