### Guide for Newbies: Getting Funding for Your Ideas/MVPs Hey experts, I'm diving into the wild world of startup funding and want some expert advice! Here are a few burning questions: 1. How, Where, and Whom to Contact for Funding? - What's the secret sauce for identifying potential investors? Where do they hang out, and how do I get their attention without resorting to interpretive dance? 2. Do I Need a Company Registered in the First Place? - Do I need to make it official and register my startup before asking for cash, or can I wing it with just an awesome idea and a dream? 3. What Do I Have to Show Investors to Get Funding (Valuations Not Applicable Yet)? - Besides my sparkling personality, what essential documents or prototypes do I need to dazzle investors and make them say, "Take my money!" 4. Is There Any Legality or T&Cs for the Funding, or Can I Use the Funding for a Poolside Party? - Once I get the funding, are there any rules?
