Wrong. I know people from my school in India who started a company in India, came here on O1 visa to continue the company here, got a GC and sold the company. 

Everyone does not do that. Most ppl here are on h1 or get a h1 here through masters. Exceptions are useless for general population.

But your statement is wrong then, that any young guy who is ambitious will have hard time ani....what's ambitious to you may about be ambitious enough for me.... It's okay to dream, but it's not okay to only dream.

O1 Visa ki criteria untayi, you need to meet 3-5 of all the criteria...startup companies ki elevator pitches untayi ga, vatillo funding oste O1 meeda ravochu. There are elevator pitches that will generate 1-2M funding for your company. Usually research unte migilina criteria match avochu.

1. The whole application process: GRE, IELTS coaching+GRE exam fee+IELTS exam fee+Each University application fee+ courier costs+Scores reporting fee for IELTS + Visa interview fee + Flight costs + shopping adds up to 2–3 lakhs INR. — This process takes almost one year of your life.
2. During MS in the US, how difficult it is to learn to cook, clean the house, clean toilet, mop the floor, wipe countertops while living with 6–10 roommates in a 2 BHK apartment. All this has to be done while attending classes, working at part-time jobs at off campus for 5–7 $ per hours and be extremely lucky to get an on-campus job.
3. The roommates would have friends coming over, would play music on speaker, would talk on phones when you are sleeping or trying to finish an assignment, or studying for a test. You will never get privacy or peace while living in a shared apartment.
4. The car is needed for everything in the US, so to get groceries from Walmart or Indian grocery store. You will need a car, uber costs almost 6–8 $ for 2–3 miles. However, owning a car is expensive as car insurance costs 150–250$ a month and gar (petrol) would cost at least 100–200$ a month. —It is impossible to own a car with just one on-campus job and manage your expenses. You would need to be working off-campus for 12–16 hours to afford it.
5. The assistantship jobs such as Teaching Assistant/Research Assistant are highly competitive as all the qualified international students like you or better than you from around the world would be fighting for them as they would give you in-state tuition fee waiver, which will decrease your tuition fee by 40% and it pays 15$ per hour. —There are hardly 1–2 position of TA or RA under each professor depending upon the size of the class.
6. There will be many days when you have no energy to cook food, you will eat Maggi or just eat rice with a pickle or sleep with hunger. Sleeping with hunger is common

Define convention, because I don't know what constitutes being conventional. Besides, don't make bold statements like young ambitious people will have no future in startups. BTW I also know people who got a Master's degree here, generated funding to raise a company and sold it off.

Startup on H1.

Tonnes of documentations and roadblocks.

staring up a startup is easy though, doesn’t mean you or anyone should start it. Do you know how many startups are going south in a day?

Sure, it's risky and it's not for everyone. What's your point?
