Get it ?

No, actually, I don't. The value of theory is not determined by the
originator but by those that test it and make use of it -- others, in
other words. There are plenty of cranks who think that they have a
useful theory because it is useful to them, even if no one else finds
it useful in the least (and in fact finds it in conflict with things
they know). This is a hallmark of a crank idea.

If someone paid me, I'd write code/theories for them, not me.

If you applied for a job to do that, then you'd find the value of your
work.

Now, perhaps you were thinking that someone might stumble on something
you claim to be a theory and *offer* to pay you for your work. Well, as
I've said, you've not made your theory accessible to the point where
anyone could evaluate it seriously enough to confidently offer you
payment. You haven't demonstrated that you have a product that works in
this area. C'est la vie.
