Domains are worth $$$
May 10th, 2007 by Bowin HamridIf there is anything in this world I can safely say I like more than unedited anime, it’s registering domain names. Hi, my name is Bowin Hamrid, and I’m what some crudely call a “Domain Squatter.” Such a term tarnishes what I, and many people like me do, how we serve the great public of the Internet. To date I own 243 registered domains, each of which I sell for anywhere from $550 to $15,000! Not all of these domains will sell; in fact, very few of them may ever spark interest in anyone but me.
However, if I’m very lucky, and an overly rich person stuck on owning one of my domains ever comes to me, I will be doing the world’s economy a favor! That’s right, I’m a modern Robin Hood! I take large amounts of money from those rich good-for-nothings, and then give the money back to the country it deserves to be in: Japan. Japan is dominating the market right now. The Yen’s value has stayed on top of the dollar’s value for almost 7 months now, and officials are predicting the Yen’s value to go even higher. Why fight progress? Japan makes the best animations in the world, and they have the best forum of government. They’re going to be the next major superpower in the world, so why waste hard earned money on an economy that has no chance of success?
That’s the name of the business, readers. Take from rich, American business-owners, and give to the good animators of Japan!
