Unethical ways to make fucking money. Part 132. Go to Google Patents right now and search for abandoned patents in any technology category you understand. When an inventor cannot afford to maintain their patents, they abandon it. The underlying claims remain valid. So that's your big invention? I find a small inventor who filed a patent and never had resources to enforce it. You purchase the patent or license the enforcement rights for a small upfront payment plus a percentage of whatever you recover. Which companies are currently using technology covered by those patent claims? Without a licensing agreement. This'll get their attention. A licensing letter. A few hundred thousand dollars to a company generating hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue. Wait, that's IT?! The license fee is a rounding error. Left: Payday. Finally! Most companies pay immediately. Right: Pay up. Litigation costs more than the license. One investor in Texas purchased enforcement rights to a software patent for $12,000 from an inventor who had given up entirely. Companies technology claims. 4 months later. Yeehaw, royalties incoming. All three signed licensing agreements within four more months. Total licensing income was $420,000. 420k baby!!! Watch this! 1) Letter being sent. 2) A check arriving.
