bgxvspon Beside a startup, what are the other ways to significant wealth for a dev?

Would you mind sharing some more about how your friend monetized his patent? I'm in a somewhat similar situation (except it's a hardware patent, not software) and would love to learn from a success story. Alternatively I can reach you out-of-band (let me know what's your preferred contact method), or you can ping me at bgxvsp at hotmail. Thanks!
