My father had an idea about 11 years ago for a cup holder that attaches to your window (for old bench style trucks) with broken cupholders or none at all. The company wanted 7,000 for R&D, my dad couldn't afford it and low and behold a few years later, they're selling a highly modified plastic version of his earlier metal version.

He's also come up with an idea to put lighters on a keychain string cause people always ***** about losing them. He started with balloons, keychain string, and some lighters. Now they sell a more commercialized version for $1.99 each around here.

MAKE YOUR IDEA A REALITY, SERIOUSLY. Don't screw around, make it happen. If they can sell a toy rock for dogs, they can sell your idea. :]

I'm hoping to submit my idea to OSHA to get them to endorse my saftey equip. idea and possibly a loan from the SBA or an investor. I'd love to be a millionaire at 23, weeee. :)

Know of any? I submitted an idea to a company, but I have to come up with the money to fund the research and development. It's an awesome idea though, and I know it would sell like illegal drugs.


i was always scared of submitting any ideas to anyone, but i have had some good ones...

The SBA isn't usually helpful... If you are looking for an investor, I can set you up with a few appointments. All it will cost you is coffee :wink:


i love coffee:wink:

long before they had the mops with the attachment on it to put the liquid, i thought how that idea would work, it was many years later they came out with it...and the swiffer idea, i thought of that many years ago, the disposable mophead, sorta like what swiffer has for dusting and mopping, just never did anything about my idea, us little people are at a disadvantage...:wink:
