Rick Schwartz, aka the Domain King®, has an interesting post:
I started in domaining with a GOAL. An achievable goal. Not a pie in the sky nonsense goal. You don’t make $1 million, you make a dollar 1 million times! Once you hit your achievable goal, it’s time to set a new goal. Repeat, repeat, repeat. That’s the path to success.
And to the desperate and truly STUPID domainers that not only send me an emails with all their pigeon shit, but they are SO STUPID that when I don’t answer them, they keep sending their crap over and over again. You guys can’t take a HINT?? Are you that stupid?? Are you that bad of a business person that you can’t figure it out? Nobody wants your PIGEON SHIT! And no, you are NOT a fellow domainer as so many of you tell me in your SPAMS! You are spammers trying to sell worthless crap and your job is finding someone stupider than you! So stop telling everyone you are a domainer. A domainer earns a living with domains or at the very least supplements their income enough to pay the mortgage or a car payment. These guys could not earn enough to last a single day! Desperation is an ugly thing! If you are a starving domainer, maybe domaining ain’t your thang (thing)!
I can’t agree more.
