Domainers are Losers

[IBN]

I was a loser waaaay before Domaining. Domaining just helps to confirm it, that's all. If I make money one day, I'll come back and talk to everybody about happiness and contentment. peace; j/k

[gtycoon]

I'm happy with the money I make. But I tend to develop many websites, but I have sold some for xx,xxx figures. I got burned in real estate and wished I just bought domains instead of fixing properties.

[Focus]

I remember when people used to pick on me when I was first on the forums and talk all kinds of sh*t, I was busy behind the scenes building an empire, I got banned from name non-pros like 3 times and they gave me a heap of sh*t over there, then I switched to DNforum and found a good place to do business & learn real domaining...then I bought domains with all the extra money I had for a few years, learned all I could..got a few lucky breaks, made some friends and maybe even a few enemies..sold a few for low $xxx and then mid $xxx on ebay..got even more motivated, started making phone calls, re-invested on pick-ups from whois lookups..landed a MONSTER generic .com domain for mid $x,xxx - flipped it for low $xxx,xxx a month later...re-invested that money..bought ALOT of traffic names and generics and now sit back and enjoy the daily ppc $$$ along with ongoing sales that pretty much come to me and are no big deal anymore..I paid more in taxes last year than most people make per year..now when I buy domains on the forum I pretty much do it to be a nice guy and spread the love. Yes, domainers sure are losers. The grilled salmon with cream pesto and jasmine rice along with the lobster bisque and french red wine I just had downtown was a testament to my loserness, along with the ride there in the convertible after getting up at like 2 pm today....was out all night last night chillin' with models drinking patron margaritas, my treat of course! (cause I'm a loser)

Very impressive Focus

I don't think anybody who understands this business would ever call you a loser.

More importantly than all that bullsh*t and the talk about money & material things is the freedom of making your own hours & schedule (freedom) and being able to help your friends and family when needed which makes you feel like there is a purpose to everything other than just running on the wheel like a hampster. I also regularly thank GOD above every single day for everything he has ever given me and also for the domain business, without God in your life don't plan on it going very well. It's also surely not what you have in life or even how much money you make that makes you happy, it's knowing you are in control of it all by running your own show. I try to do at least one good thing for someone else EVERY single day...because I have found that the more you actually give a sh*t about others - the more comes to you, somehow & someway...trust me on that one. Good ole' karma. If you have tried and failed and tried and failed again, just keep trying and eventually you WILL succeed, even if it is over time or when you least expect it. It is impossible to fail everytime and God will help you when you deserve it as long as you don't give up.

btw- thanks for the kind words and PM's...without this forum none of it would have been possible, DNF is a great place to be & has changed many people's lives including mine. Without the domain business I would probably be selling drugs or working a 9-5 forever, or worse. It's us as a community of business people that keeps this whole circle complete..so go buy a domain or sell a domain this week and keep our world turning.

Those who start threads without thinking are losers.

[Focus]

Or need to be reminded they really are'nt a loser even though they may feel like one...the great thing about being a "loser" one day is that you can be a "winner" the next.

[oberheimer]

I make ok money i just dont call everyone loosers for trying.
If you dont try then you will never know

I'm in south Florida 24-7 and he's never bought.

But, I think you deserve it more than I do considering where you are.

LOSERS !!!!!!!!!!!!

Very few will actually succeed

You can't anyone a loser, domaining is more off a hobby for many & not a mainstream income for most of us here.

Also everyone looks to make good money via shortcut(don't you?), if it clicks fine & if it doesn't nothing wrong about that......as he/she has that extra bit of $ in pocket to do it, people do lose money on gambling....does it means that all are losers.

Sometimes you do it for fun, excitement or just to keep yourself occupied.

Cool down dude,
I agree domaining is more off like gambling but gambling is involved in every type of business.

But you are definately bound to make some good $'s if you play sensibly.....
