First make a wormhole generator*, do a quick survey of the patents databases in the other universes, find out what ideas don't already figure in there somewhere, apply for the patents....and we'll become rich**.
I mean there must be some universe out there which doesn't have iFoomsh, the bedrock of
our own economy.
*Ok, this is the tricky bit, but once this trifling*** problem is overcome..

Widely pre-heated in science fiction. |

As you say, first catch the rabbit. If you can manage
to generate controlled parallel worlds travel, you
really aren't going to need the income from the
patents. Resource and energy extraction from
unpopulated worlds would do the trick. |
|

If you invent a wormhole generator, does it follow that you simultaneously invent it in an infinite number of parallel universes? |
|
| |
Would you like to buy a worm? |

//simultaneously invent it in an infinite number of parallel universes? |
|
| |
Dunno, still trying to figure out the instructions on this one...flap A into slot B...argh..just trapped me thumb underneath Proxima Centauri..it stings, I can tell you. |
|
| |
//apply for the patents....and we'll become rich.// |
|
| |
Um... that first wormhole bit might be easier.
I'll work on that part if you bankroll the patenting part.
Deal? |

Deal. 50/50 split of the profits? |
|
| |
Because a patent on something truly new is dirt simple, and
costs about 5 grand for an individual. It only gets complex
or expensive when you start needing to pay lawyers to
weasel word around prior art. |
|
| |
Yep, 50/50 split.
Novel innovations in exchange for backstab-less bureaucratic know-how.
[Have intuition. Will travel.] |

|
| |
...or until they change the laws around you while you are busy innovating and law is not your forte... |
|
| |
If you can figure out a way that I can exchange the eight to twelve hours a day, I now spend crawling, in pursuit of knowledge without my family suffering for it and then I get to 'keep' half of the profits that the IP from this knowledge will generate?!
Well... |

(Sprays disinfectant on screen and keyboard, just to be on the safe side...institutes temperature monitoring of zeros and ones arriving from West Africa.. ) |

Sheesh! I get blamed for everything...
The cooties outbreak of '04 had nothing to do with me I tells ya. |
