So basically I live in Mumbai, and I will be starting my business after completing my education.

My parents are upper middle class, so they can probably help with some finance when I begin, but I will not take any help unless I need it desperately. However I want to know, what do fastlaners think about how much help should a person take from parents, relatives, etc.

Another question is a bit location based. The population of my city is estimated to be around 22 million (more than some countries lol), so there are a lot of helpful people (alongside unhelpful people). If I am starting on my own, to what extent should I take help from others (practically a lot of things can be done by help from other people, provided you have the patience to request again and again and try many people).

I want to know the views of people from this forum.
