Hi there,

After reading The Millionaire Fastlane I introduced a very good friend of mine to the book and we began to watch out for needs. After some days we had a really amazing idea for a mobile application. Every commandment is met, millions of peoples lifes could be made easier with this app.

We are both 18 and 17 and are working on this idea for some weeks now. We wrote the features of the application down and are now at the design part of the app. After that we will work on the marketing section and then the rest (like designing and setting up a website and stuff like that).

Our plan is to have everything perfectly ready for external developers so they can start programming as soon as they get our whitepaper.
The problem we are facing now is that we don't have any capital. We have no money to patent our idea or anything like that. Our plan on getting money at the moment is to use crowdfunding but we fear that there will be fast copies of our idea (or someone patenting it) by people that have the money to do so.

I am sure we are not the first with that problem and I would appreciate any hints you can give.
