Not completely objective, no. Some I think would try really hard but I wouldn't expect them to be completely objective. I will definitely choose carefully the ones who I believe can give me the most objective opinion. And I said friends but these wouldn't necessarily have to be the closest friends, even mere acquaintances could suffice.

Can you suggest to whom I should then give my plan for an objective opinion, prior to talking with investors? Would giving it to someone who isn't a 'friend' guarantee a non-biased opinion? I'm not so sure. I'm thinking even complete strangers could have a biased opinion. That just depends from a person to person. I was thus hoping I could be able to choose the right people from the ones I know. And let me assure you, I'm not looking for somebody to tell me how good my plan is. Thank you for you input.
