Until Dec 6th, my hangup is school, it's a time-eater. I'm taking some time off (and probably never going back) to start my startup, with some YC style funding from some personal sources; I feel like the money is paltry in comparison to the contacts and the tech-world help that YC gives. That's not necessarily a holdup of mine, just a concern. I know that it will be harder to find good business and legal advice, and such; but it will come.
