Really? This is by far the worst advice that I have heard this year, but its only April. Realistic downside to starting a company willy-nilly, loss of your two friends, cease and desist orders from companies with the same name, personal bankruptcy and fines due to incorrect type company formation or no formation, etc. I see many startups that pick horrible names and then close because they couldnt gain enough traction because consumers couldn't connect their name "webvan" to their product "instacart".

What great timing, Jason! My two friends and I are working on our screener pitch deck this weekend. Can't wait to apply! Maybe this time is the charm.
