Money: at this point whatever I can personally invest. Nothing more, nothing less. And while my paycheck is good by most people's standards, it's nowhere nearly enough to hire anyone qualified.

Mission: there is one. Vision-same story. Despite the treacherous possibility of contributing to an "idiocracy" type of dystopia.

VC is definitely a goal but as I stated, it's too much work for a single man to handle. And most importantly the website is where I would definitely fail: I can write a tacotron 2 implementation from scratch in less than two days. Make any website that looks better than 1998 yahoo(due to my lack of design skills) - possibly months.

As for my social circles - they are all too comfortable in their own world to deal with anything other than their daily jobs. As I said, they would all much rather waste their time on Tinder and Facebook rather than work on something that could benefit them. And it was the same story when I looked for people outside, even when I threw cash at them(understand freelancers).
