not the point im trying to make with what i wrote above but thanks for the suggestions spex
Just trying to help where I can. You said you wanted, but couldn't afford a nice 1word.ca so I gave you suggestions.
As for the overall theme of yours posts here today, not much else to say other than don't chase the top-end TBR names if you don't have the cash. If you're unemployed and living with your parents, you probably shouldn't be gambling on domains or any other "lottery" type things.
And don't expect domainers (or anyone really) to be nice and leave the good names to others.
Also, you mentioned you only have a couple decent names. Domaining is a numbers game, with a good sell-though rate being about 1 to 2%. Which means that you would have to have around 1200 names just to get an average of one sale per month. And those sales would probably only be the best names in your portfolio, with the other 1100+ names being ignored by end-users
If you look at all the good domainers (however you define 'good'), they all have thousands of domains but you only hear about their sales. No one is bragging about their drops
So don't sweat it too much. Just start small and build your way up. Take most of your names and try to flip them for cost or maybe even 2x and work your way up like most of us have done.
Even those "doctors" and "engineers" you're talking about probably aren't using their day-job money to play in domains. Their probably playing with profits that have been accumulated over the years
lol
