Sometimes innovations are accidental, which is what occurred to me last night. I came up with a world changing concept that must be implemented to the market. However, I do not want to use the money I've saved for LL, but if you had a billion dollar idea, who would you go to first? (Other than a venture capitalist)
It doesn't have to be all about finance, but more of a mentor.
The space elevator. That is what I plan to build after getting my PhD.
Speak to some professors at your university or academic institution. They might point you to some useful people.
If you tell anyone your idea they might steal it.
That's why we have patents
I hate this topic because you have no intention of telling us what it is.
I HAVE AN AMAZING SECRET. but im not going to tell you.
this phrase comes to mind.

I have--I'm doing carbon nanotube research this summer with a Dr. Heben to better understand their electrical properties, which in tern could make them useful for a space elevator.
what happens if you get stuck in the elevator? that's gonna suck 
also does it have elevator music?
Lol lets hope that doesn't happen
The ride would be a few days--I don't think I could handle days of elevator music lol

I was afraid someone (You especially xD) would say this
Not to worry, it's only going to be useful to maybe a small handful of people on LL community, but it's targeted towards a much different audience, however, it can grow.
But don't take it as, "Cya, you guys suck, Ima add zeros to my bank account" no. My true intention is to see what others would seek if they are to be under this circumstance.

As long as it has wifi and a microwave, I would be cool with it.
I wonder what leg lengthening would be like in space...
