Calling ideas "a dime a dozen" massively overestimates their value.
Form a team to implement it, or tell somebody who will, before someone else comes up with it independently. All else fails, shout your great idea in public (twitter works well for this purpose) -- otherwise, nobody will ever know that you thought of it.
Or, if you don't care about people attributing it to you, you can just keep it close to your chest. It's not like you're likely to make money on even a good idea anyhow -- the odds are against any new business making money, period.
- oblib 9y ago"Calling ideas "a dime a dozen" massively overestimates their value." Absolutely true. Forming a team is my first problem and priority. As I said, I live way out in the boonies here. "It's not like you're likely to make money on even a good idea anyhow" That true too, but it is likely this idea will make money. I understand enough to know that, and that is where I am right now. It's also true that very few ideas are unique. If I saw the need it's very likely others have or will too. So it's a race to see who gets it done right first. I cannot do that myself and I am very well aware of that.
