don't be demoralized, and don't let others decide how you should run your business or what you should value. if you have a profitable business be happy with your success and build on it. lottery winners happen every day, don't let that ruin building great products and businesses for you. the problem with outside investors (any investors, VCs, angels etc.) is that your business automatically inherits their values, and if their values are different enough from yours the friction could destroy your business and/or destroy your values.
