I remember at a young age telling my step dad that he should be buying domain names of big companies and sitting on them. he laughed at me. :(

I'm the sort of kid who was buying candy in bulk and reselling it at school for a hefty markup. I'm pissed I missed out on all the easy money in web 1.0. If only I was born 10 years earlier.




Domain Squatting is illegal and has been for about 10 years.


If you had a time machine and wanted to make decent amounts of money, one way would be to register the generic keyword domains (like creditcards.com which sold for $3m)


10 years would be what? 1998-1999? I'm obviously talking about 1993-1994
