From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bootstraps are companies that are started by their founders with their own personal money, without any external financing. While such a funding involves a huge risk for the founders, the absence of any other stakeholder, gives the founders a complete freedom and helps them realize their vision without any external interference.

Many successful companies including Dell Computers were found this way.
