Like Monty Python said: Always look on the bright side of life. Assuming you're right, then your first buyer would be the US Army. You would never have to work a single day in your life ever again. :-)

Somehow, I don't think you're taking this seriously. If you really believe in the potential of this technology, it should scare the daylights out of you.

I'm generally hard to scare, but why not talk it over with a couple of engineers? Either they're going to tell you "it's not going to work b/c that's what we've been told in school" and you'll sleep better, or you're going to be very rich and you'll also sleep better.

I don't need to talk to anyone to sleep just fine, because Elon Musk, Exxon, the CCP and the US Department of Defense aren't idiots and would have bought up all of the rare earth magnets already if this was anything but obvious crank.
