Other than a few .mobi + .asia investors, I don't think many people starting in the 2006-2008 timeframe thought they'd become millionaires off handregs...
I know lots of domainers who make 1-2k USD per month and are from China, India, etc where you can live quite comfortably off of that. It's hard to be successful by "USA standards" if you get into domaining today but that's not true for new domainers from other countries where "success" might be 2 digits lower than American/European expectations.
How many people become millionaires doing anything? I think that's a very lofty amount to label success. If someone can hold down a full time job and make a few hundred or thousand per month in their spare time on top of that, is that not successful?

FACT : many in this industry don't make hardly any money.
FACT : Most register domain names w/ the expectation / hope that the $6.99 registration will make them millionaires
FACT : Very few domainers will actually succeed
Now, may I ask, why do these comments piss you guys off. do you disagree with the premises ? or does it merely offend your sensibility ? |
