No need for role models, otherwise you'll end up paying less attention to your own goals.

If someone wants people to look up to him/her as a role model, then you should be very cautious... their intentions may be the opposite of what they want you to believe it is.

As someone relatively new to the non-development side of domains I've been taking advantage of the time I spend walking my dog to listen to a lot of domain podcasts. I really appreciate @Michael Cyger and the Sherpas: @Domain Shane, Drew Rosener, Frank Schilling, @Zandibot, and all others in the reviews and interviews. Although I've already had some domains, these podcasts have really helped me learn more.

But while I'm very grateful to each of them, I think they'd be the first to say we each need to figure out our own niches and invest based on our own acquired knowledge and personal risk tolerance levels. So while I'd love to be in Frank Schilling's shoes, to buy/sell like him would be a mistake as I don't have the resources or infrastructure .. so instead I've been trolling the drop/auction lists 2-3 hours per night slowly growing my portfolio .. now comes the real challenging part of starting to market/sell them.

So at the end of the day while there isn't one specific person, this NP community, the Sherpa and DNWire podcasts, and now some of the blogs and other sites .. I take a bit from everyone and a lot of my own experimenting to buy good domains low ... and very soon to hopefully sell high! :)
