Why is theft a challenge for an inventor?

"Theft" is not a challenge for an inventor any more than it is for anyone else. Theft is taking something with the intention of permanently depriving its owner of it. Copying an invention is not theft because the inventor has not been deprived of the invention after it has been copied: the inventor still knows what the invention is. On the other hand, the risk of someone copying his or her invention is a challenge for an inventor. The person who copied the invention can get the benefit of the invention without any of the cost and effort that the inventor had to go to to make the invention. That might make the inventor worse off. The patent system exists to allow inventors to protect their inventions.


How can you get free help with an invention?

If you do not care if you will lose the royalty rights to the invention, finding free help is the way to go. Otherwise, carefully research companies that can help you register the patent and bring the product to market so that you do not get ripped off.


How long do you have to stay in school to be a inventor?

You can be an inventor before you even start school. You could invent something that works around the home. Before I had a bedlamp I rigged up a pulley system to turn off my bedroom light. Many inventors didn't even go to school. The person who invented the wheel probably didn't have a school to go to. To be an inventor you just have to have a brain full of ideas and then work out ways to get them into action.

How do patents act as an incentive to technological innovation?

They assure the creator of a process or item the right to make money off their invention for a certain time period. In terms of copyright, that might mean the author of a book can make enough money from sales and licensing that he can quit his day job as an accountant and dedicate himself to writing. For patents, it more often means that a pharmaceutical company has a chance of recouping the millions of dollars they invested in research and development of a new drug.
