Give them away to friends -- ideas are generally worthless, execution is everything. Be wary of your wife's laments, problems at home will sink your start up(s) very quickly.

I've had at least 10 ideas that i saw others pursue to great success. I'm not unique. We've all had such ideas. It's not the idea. How many sub-optimal ideas have you seen turn into successful businesses with multi-million dollar payouts?

Like many other smarter people have said - it's not the idea. it's what you do with the idea. and it sounds like, as is the case with 99.9% of the population, you're not in a position to do much with your idea.

so come up with an idea that you can execute yourself :)
