Speculation, like any investment, can be aggressive or conservative. You can stick with savings accounts or go with 3rd World bonds, depending on whether you can afford to possibly lose your money.
Obviously the higher the possible rewards, the higher the risk. I would say you are at the extreme of the scale and took a major gamble.
I wish you good luck.

IMO it's no big deal.
Assessing whether a site is 'developed' is pretty subjective. To me a 'developed' minisite with copy-paste content and adsense is not so different than a parked page.
Concerning games.mobi for example I guess you could just upload a basic sudoku Flash game and be done with it
.mobi pages are so dull and crippled down anyway
IMHO... The requirement from mtld to develop is a
lame attempt to justify their lucrative
hold on the most premium keywords, as if were not also about money after all...
they couldn't care less about the fact that so many (most) mobi names including the most expensive like flowers are just parked... sorry but I don't buy their hype
