Nuggets:
- You can license an expensive domain name, if you need it for SEO or marketing but don’t have the capital in your business yet.
 - If a client takes advantage of you or your idea gets stolen consider the odds of it happening again before wasting time on reparation or retaliation.
 
Action Steps:
- Brainstorm incentive structures with a behavioral economist
 - Wireframe the app and shop it to JetBlue, Delta, etc…
 - Research economics around credit card companies’ partnership with airlines
 - Search for existing flight tracking apps. Offer to buy one for cheap. Add this idea to it.
