If anyone out there can get a winglet to produce thrust, then they would become very weathy indeed. In fact they would never have to fly for a living ever again.

Even more money than the person who can get an engine to run on water.

A winglet reduces induced drag. They cannot in any way, shape or form produce thrust.
