Uncomfortable with investors

Tim Ferriss and his guests have discussed discomfort with investors on several occasions. Here's a notable insight:

Sir James Dyson shared his experience on the Tim Ferriss Show. He initially didn't think taking on investors would make him uncomfortable, but it did. The discomfort arose because having investors meant he had to share decision-making processes with them and seek their approval for ideas, which he found restrictive. He preferred relying on himself and making independent decisions 1.

This highlights the trade-off between gaining financial support and maintaining control over one's company.
