    I would agree with you if the world did not have Corporations in it. I had to patent them to protect myself. Otherwise IBM would have taken my idea, patented it themselves and then sued me for selling my own invention.

    Until Patent reform is real you MUST file your own patents to protect yourself because All corporations are 100% evil and will fuck you over if you give them the chance.

    Why do you think TESLA has patents that they allow others to use for free? Because if they did not patent them, someone else would and use it as a weapon against them.

    and if a small time company came to me saying. " we really want to use your patent" I would (and have) negotiate a very, very, reasonable contract with them. IBM or HP? they get to pay me through the nose because they can afford to.

    It's because stupid people need smart people to do things. Luckily smart people are not easily convinced to work for free.

    Want success? Learn how to SCHMOOZE and be a salesman.

    CEO's are stupid as boxes of rocks, but they can sell themselves and talk others into doing things and convince people they know what they are doing.

    Corporate success is 90% bullshit and 10% smarts.

    On a side note, if you have an IQ of 150-170 and are not doing your own research or tinkering to come up with something new, you are wasting your brain. Start tinkering, start building, there HAS to be something you know you can do better or build better.

    I have several patents under my belt, no I'm not making buttloads of money off of them but I created something that makes the world better. I also build and do things that others can not do. I can modify and reprogram Car ECM systems in my sleep, 90% of the automotive engineers at GM cant do what I can do. (Note: I did work for GM for a short time, 100% of their management is populated with raging low IQ assholes so I quit in less than 30 days) And I learned all this by hacking and tinkering.

    So get off your ass and start doing. Smart people do not become CEO unless daddy had billions already (Elon Musk for example) Build things, hack things, modify things. I know a lot of high IQ people and they all have one thing in common. Being lazy. Smartest guy I know wastes most of every day playing Xbox and smoking pot.

    Your failures are your own, and your success is also your own. What do you want more of?

    "If you spread false or misleading information that could tarnish the reputation of another person you are most definitely not entitled to an opinion as far as the law is concerned."

    I think you do not understand what "OPINION" means.

    "I think thegarbs is killing kittens in blenders" That is opinion and you can not be sued for it and I am entitled to that opinion as far as the law is concerned.
    "thegarbs is killing kittens in blenders" That is not opinion and therefore not protected speech.

    If it is not conveyed as a personal opinion, then you can sick your lawyer dogs on the person. If it is conveyed clearly that it is personal opinion, you can still sick your dogs, but all you will do is lose horribly in court over two words.

    the entire time you are working you learn new or better skills for your next job.

Became and expert at IT and then learned DB programming, jumped ship to the company's competition as their DB admin, perfected that while learning embedded systems programming, jumped ship to that.
