Since you retain ownership of the invention, you can make a substantial amount of money. Unfortunately, this cannot be guaranteed.
There is a possibility that the idea will not get enough attention. You will likely get more help from others as you help others more.
There is also a possibility of theft, which is explained more thoroughly in the "Can My Ideas Be Stolen?" section.
Keep in mind that NeoMenlo is also designed to help those who do not have the resources for the inventing process.
Due to these risks, we advise that users whose main goal is to make money use another invention help method. The possibility of profit should be seen as an added benefit to the enjoyment of inventing and the betterment of the world.
