I thought it would be interesting for everyone to see just how many people here are actually making a living from the domain name game that we all love.
Newcomers keep pouring into the field with the belief that there is easy money to be made. Within a few months, reality slaps them in the face and they realize they would have had better odds of success at the roulette wheel in Las Vegas.
My guess is that a poll will show that the vast majority of members here have real jobs and make only a small portion of their annual income from this field (or no income at all from it).
Not that that makes the game any less fun or addicting, but I think it would be healthy for people to realize what they are in for.
Everyone will fall into one of the five categories. It is an anonymous vote - so don't be shy.
Those who are willing to share your experiences since they entered the field, please post your replies. Tell us how you advanced from newbie to wise man (or poor man which probably came first!). I think it will be instructive for everyone.
P.S. For your answers to be meaningful you will have had to be in the business for at least several months to see your income trend from domain names. The purpose of the poll is primarily to show newcomers how people who have walked the path before them are faring.
