I would only be interested in ones with large search stats for business, or ones that make some cool hack just for lulz.
Names like chicago.pizza , london.hotel , credit.card download.game oh baby yes please.

Save for .HOTEL, before you could register domains like that, you first need to find a registry owner crazy enough to burn millions of dollars to launch a TLD like .PIZZA or .CARD.

None of the above, of course.

Obviously names like these will be auctioned at landrush, it's not like they will be available for regfee on a first come first served basis.

Agree 100% .

As for the OP's question about which new TLD you would invest in, my answer is an even bigger "zero" than before.

I guess if you want replies we could see this as "If you had $1m of someone else's money to invest in ONLY new TLDs and you would get 10% of the profits, what would be your top 3 extensions?"

So I'll go with GEO, sex, shop(ping). Some serious regional or major-city marketing might get locals - not domainers - to sign up. Look at how other new TLD marketing campaigns have done, and look at how the local appeal of CCTLDs has increased.

credit.card is worth more than the cost of the registry that creates it.
