Even if you could get off the ground with as little as 50-100k, that’s still more than the average startup business has to work with. The small guys just aren’t going to have that kind of capital to invest.

50-100k , well 50-100k means no employees and the person handling the roles themselves. given no experience. just dont see it possible. given we're talking about paysites still
I spent more than that in one of the cheaper niches and i had a ton of adult marketing experience before i did it.
you can make some money off of 50-100k but it'd take a veteran to do it or you'd most likely burn through it. Though it also depends, can you support yourself while you do all the ground work for your business, do you calculate that into the budget.
Sometimes it takes a year for a business to shoot all the content and get the designs, integrations, and the cushion for the learning curve. hell most of the time newbies goto a designer and just that process takes months, not even including integration if you need that done
So do you take into account, the living costs for an entire year while you build it up?
Alot of people always forget the small details, if theyre really starting from scratch, sometimes you need a lawyer to get documents, alot of lawyers charge a retainer for 5k, thats 5k within the first day, those things people forget add up real quick and if theyre takign all those costs into account, on top of the production costs and living costs. It gets out of reach for some very quickly
You can get up to 50k-100k very quickly
