Yes, its not ideas that peopel are lacking, in general. Its normally money, to put the ideas into practice.
You see, I have ideas for free energy, based on using gravity, rain, rivers and all sorts of things. But with 500 million to put it into action, im gonna have to wait and watch the govt do it.
Also, i could end the recession, if the PM would just listen for 5 minutes. I cant get hso attention.
Do you see the problem ? I am 42, and you are saying what i was saying when i was 18, 21, 25, 28 and 29. Then i stopped, because i realised id had a thousadn brillian ideas, but other people with money were doing them, after id thought of them.
Also, if youy tell anyone they will do it (especially teh big banking guy, if you get your meeting, because thats how he go this office - by murdering the competition, and everyone he met, who had a good idea).
So, if you have no money, the best advice i coudl give, is to buy something cheap (whatever you can afford to buy), and sell it for as much as you can. Start witha £10 item. Sell it for £20.
The next week, do the same, but double the £20, to £40. Every week, make sure you can double your sales, some how.
After 12 weeks, you will have £100,000+
Now, if you cant sell something you bought for £10, for £20, how the heck are you gonna elevate yourself, form nowhere, to the top ? And if you CAN sell somethign for double, why not do that for 12 weeks, and reture ?
I would start small if i were you, and build up.
There is no ladder to the top, for people with "ideas", on their own. You would need skils (in which case you wouldnt be here), or money, to talk to those people. They would use your skills, and steal your money, as your mind works now. you would desperately tell them everything you know, in th efirst meeting, to try and hold their attention. Then they would ask you politely, to leave, and use your idea, for their own purposes.
If your idea was extremely profitable, they may even send someone round ot kill you, fo rit.
