The Idea, The Money and The Environment

I like this analogy and I think it puts an ends to the world wide debate of whats more important, the idea or the money?

The analogy simply states that an idea is the 'seed', the money is the 'water' and the environment the idea gets implemented in is the 'soil'.

Now, all you have to do to understand the effects of the lack or availability of these elements is by substitution and elimination...

If you have a good idea without enough money or without a suitable environment, then it stays in it's passive form, with no yield.

If you have lots of money without a (good) idea and a suitable environment then your money is in its passive form, with no yield.

If you have a wonderful environment without a (good) idea or enough money, then you're environment is in its passive form, with no yield.

When three of them match, you'll get a wonderful tree. However, without sufficient money, it might take longer to grow, without a matching culture or environment then it will take a lot more time to be accepted, but at the end, without the seed, there's absolutely no tree.
