It is not universally better to bootstrap or get funding, as the decision depends on your business model, growth goals, and risk tolerance. Bootstrapping allows for control and ownership, but may result in slower growth, while external funding can accelerate growth, but requires giving up equity and control. The right choice depends on factors such as industry, capital requirements, and personal preferences.
