The bad news is that your idea has a value of $0 right now, no matter how good it is. Companies don’t buy ideas, they buy businesses and/or patents. You could try to patent your idea but that path usually isn’t as simple or as lucrative as it sounds. You could try to build a company around your idea, but if it can’t stand alone as an independent company then that’s a dead end. The good news is that FAANG jobs pay well, so simply getting one of those jobs might let you achieve your goals. Don’t let this idea get in the way of actually making progress, though. It’s better to actually land a well paying job than to hold off on applying while you try to perfect an idea.
