Let me add something, if you have a business need /12 and your business can not 
even raise 10m in cash, seriously, I think there is something wrong with it.

So no, new people can still grow to whatever size they want, maybe 10-15% more 
investment than the "good old time", but anyone who have done investment would 
tell you in exchange for a successful business, 10-15% more is tolerateble.
