7 figure domain name sales... off of an $8-10 purchase. Very few places you can see those kind of returns!

Good point...but $100 for $14million -- what is that... 140,000% return?

I'd still take that kind of return any day

Actually he also recieved close to 20 million from the
courts over lost revenue while he was in court getting it back.
He also had sex.net which he sold for $500,000 around a year ago.

Domains were free when I got my first ones. Bandwidth
was $20.00 a Gig tho, now it's around 5 cents a Gig.
