As Thomas has mentioned, if you can budget an employee, you can budget a consultant. There certainly exist cash-poor startups who don't know where their next bowl of ramen is coming from, but there also exist startups with dozens or hundreds of employees.

there's a huge difference in what a startup is when it's 3-4 guys vs hundreds. The latter is not much different as working for any other company, and you can probably get paid in cash.
