I think that this is the wrong question. They forgot the rarest and most important thing: the ability to implement a project or idea.
I have found that both ideas and capitol are pretty easy to come by. The thing that usually gets in the way is the ability to implement the project/idea.
Smart investors only invest when they think that there is a good idea and the business can successfully implement the idea. The ability to communicate that you can implement the project is the main key to getting funding.
When a funding source looks at a proposal, they generally spend 10% of their time looking at the idea and 90% of their time looking to see if the requester has the ability to implement the idea. Unfortunately, most proposals focus on the idea. I think that this is why people think that capitol is hard to find. They are hunting tigers but they are using cabbage for the bait.
