why women always complain?

how do i start a hardware company biz?
(let's say its for something small like ledger nano).

background;
I know how to program fpga's and also programming in general (i am well-above average; Not to sound cocky just for background). No qualifications other than high school diploma. I have $35k left over from last bullrun and am 18yo.

What steps does one have to take?
i assume first i need to write out specs for the hardware (will still need professional opinion/consulting for this). Then find a hardware manufacturing/asic factory that can make the chip.

Then marketing budget etc. I think in total I will need $150k of funding. Is there a way to "fake it until i make it"? Somehow leverage the $35k into $150k of value? e.g. asic factory may only require 50% deposit for manufacturing and then the rest later or something like that?
