My cousin invented the thumbrella...never heard of it huh ?
It was a small protective plastic canopy that popped out of your suit coat sleeve with a touch of the thumb. Invented to cover your breif case, documents, books, etc...In the event of unexpected weather.
After over $10,000 invested, and the promise of production of the item, he gave up. It sounded stupid to us, and suppose that it was.
Many companies are set up to take you broke on new inventions and patents.
Big promises and little results.

sounds like you need a business partner for your ideas.

I'll have my name attached to both a design patent and a utility patent within the next couple months, but doesn't really mean much since its my company that will have ownership of them. Should net me a plaque and a free dinner at some point - gotta love corporate America!
