"I've got an idea for an app"
So let's say I take the author's advice, 'always listen to ideas', and unlike the author, get told an awesome idea by a friend-of-a-friend with zero ability to execute.<p>Great, now what?<p>Do I really set up a working relationship with this person, who's likely dead weight and valueless now that the idea's been revealed? Do I give him the ownership he thinks he deserves, which is a 50-50 split if I'm lucky? Do I just build it myself?<p>I prefer to avoid such ethical quandaries, which is why I stick to my own ideas.
