It is not contradictory. They want profit but do not have private investors.

Did I just read the statement "startups do not have private investors" on YCombinator.com?

I should have said "they don't all have private investors". The article, as I read it, is making the argument that Kickstarter should only be used by entities who do not already have enough money to do whatever they are planning.
