do i take a loan and create a startup with no networking/teambuilding skills at all? or do i just spend all my life savings on a patent and pitch it to another company to get paid every time they use it?

I'm almost certain this idea will sell millions of units in months (with the right advertising). I know everyone says this when they invent shit but this is an entirely untapped market (at least in the states, australia had a similar product but flopped due to poor marketing). Is it possible for me to just manufacture everthing overseas without jumping on a plane with minimal employees in the states?

The government 'makes' patents. What you are paying for is an ENFORCEABLE patent. Find a family-friend patent attorney.

Listen to mark Cuban. Patents are useless. First mover advantage is all that matters. It's actually easier to file the patent after you make it and it's easier to defend at that point too if someone else tries to.

This. The guy who owns [redacted] has 77 patents and in the last 30 years only 2 were ever enforced and one of those was because of an 8 year claw back where some guy selling his company was told by the buyers to settle it.

Imagine if all the people in the red had been born.
More crime and poverty. It's almost like being born to a mother that doesn't want you fucks you up. Or even one that knows that they're in no social/financial situation to raise you.

If it's worth as much as you say it is, then paying the patent fee is a trivial initial investment. You should also do a solid patent search to see if the idea is original though.

You're also going to need to hire a patent attorney to write the thing because if you try to do it yourself guaranteed you will fuck it up.
