Inventoritis. Do you have it?
I was sent a link to an article called How to Not Go Broke on Your Million Dollar Idea. In this article the co-authors of ,Overcoming Inventoritis: Happy About Not Flushing Away Your Innovation Dollars, Peter Paul Roosen and Tatsuya Nakagawa put 10 critical questions in front of every innovator and inventor who want to make it big.
In addition to these 10 reality check questions, Roosen and Nakagawa highlight a few things you can do before you invest either your nest egg or your kids college fund on your invention.
If this is the kind of helpful advise that is in their book it is worth being on your book shelf.
