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.

You honestly think friends would give you an objective opinion? Giving it to friends is a pretty much guaranteed way to get biased results
