Seems like you should sell your rights to the suit to a third party for a flat fee and percentage of recovery.

Who in their right mind would buy a case that’s past the statute of limitations?
Half of HN, it sounds like.
Yes, I have to say, I'm a bit surprised (and disappointed) by how many people in this thread are struggling with their reading comprehension of the story.
It's a fun story, but that's all. There's absolutely no legal case here.

Not only would I buy it, I'd win it too. Statute of limitations is irrelevant here. Property rights are eternal.
Just commented the same thing and agree 100%.
What sort of law suit rights can be sold? This is a new concept for me. If I was hit by a Mack truck could I sell my rights to sue. It would seem to be a different type of case or are they both sort of the some. Injured by a truck vs. injured by you not holding up your end of the bargin?
Pretty much any lawsuit right can be sold, except for personal injury lawsuits, due to specific state restrictions for public policy reasons.
