Hey cool, thanks for jumping in!

You said it must come from my own pocket, however my impression was that it can come from anywhere, be it an American angel investor, a Suisse one, an American VC, Israeli VC or my uncle doesn't matter.

Isn't this correct?

PS: the only way I would see feasible would be if that person made a monetary donation to you (that money legitimately becomes your), and then you had a private contract with that person to give them shares in the company, but 1. this may run fool of the treaty laws, and 2. I doubt many investors would be willing to do that.

That's incorrect as far as I know, but if you find information that says otherwise, I would be very interested to hear about it.
