My parents were steamed at me as I just spent my allowance money on an “Inventor’s Help Center” to produce my crazy idea the band aid with ointment. Yes this was before “Band- Aid” even thought about this idea let alone manufacture or distributed it. Yet as a Pre-Teen my parents disappointment in me led my toss away this idea and the possible millions (or thousands) that could have come my way. The truth is many good ideas don’t have the monies/contacts to manufacture or distribute their product properly and fail for that reason. . Today I might have a few less Shekles in my pocket but at least the world is better with the invention that came from my mind first.
