13 Stupid Million Dollar Inventions You Regret Not Thinking Of
#1 Doggles
How many times have you put glasses on your dog? Well, you should have put a patent on it.
Profit: $3 million annually
#2 Slap Bracelets
The most hideous and cheapest things composed of plastic that shouldn't even be considered a bracelet made insane profits.
Profit: $8 million during peak year
#3 Billy Bob Teeth
While you're wearing teeth that make you look like you have a bacterial infection of the gums, the creator is probably on an island he bought (wearing veneers).
Profit: More than $7 million during it's best year
#4 The iFart App
How many of you guys are pissed off now because you didn't think to record a variety of your farts and sell them for money?
Profit: $10,000 per day
#5 Crocs
Who knew having zero fashion sense could make you richer than famous style icons?
Profit: $1 billion
#6 Silly Putty
Go in kitchen. Accidentally make goop. Become millionaire.
Profit: $5 million annually
#7 Big Mouth Billy Bass
I can imagine the profits are undisclosed because the creator is unable to do math.
Profit: undisclosed - but reasonably insane. They've sold "millions and millions and millions" of them at around $20 each.
#8 The Slinky
Unless it's stuck on your pet or baby, this is the worst entertainment you've ever had.
Profit: $1 billion in total sales
#9 The Snuggie
When this was first released, it was pretty much a joke when you bought it. Who is the joke on now, broke-ass?

#10 Furby
Someone pretty much stuffed a Gremlin and made it blink. Now they're rich forever.
Profit: $500 million in annual revenue at their peak
#11 The Pet Rock
It's amazing what people will pay for when they want a pet but they don't want responsibility. The inventor of The Pet Rock probably got his idea by glancing outside. Genius.
Profit: 1.5 million sold at $4 a pop.
#12 Hint
Has anyone else tried this fruit flavored water where you have to concentrate to even taste a difference? I add flavor to my water all the time and I'm still broke, damn it.
Profit: More than $30 million annually
#13 The Trunki
Kids need kid stuff. Simple right? How has nobody else thought of this? Well, the creator did and he's a multimillionaire.
Profit: $6.1 million during it's peak year
