When I was younger I would have been worried about someone stealing my idea but now I think I'd be fine with it.

I have ideas that I wish someone did, just so I could buy their product and solve problems that annoy me. I used to see new stuff and say to myself, "I thought of that, why didn't I do it?" Now I say, "I knew there had to be something like this out there. Awesome; I'll buy it."
