You will need money to carry you the first 3 months , that with the expectation you will not sell any names . I would recommend having at a minimum $3,500 to purchase names from the auction houses from day 1 when going full time. You will need to have two computer screens min running during work. You will need to utilize ALL available auction sites. There are also some that only have a once a month auction , these are crucial for maximum ROI , your average work day should be 12 hours per day , a lot of days of 16 hours per day . Remember you are jumping in shark infested waters and must stay completely focused at most all times during your working hours , things happen really fast and can be the difference in thousands of dollars at the end of your fiscal year.
Part Time as opposed to Full Time domaining is Apples to Oranges , you will indeed buy more names , many more names when full time , low budget startup full time is $3,500 , that just my opinion . $5,000 to $10,000 startup is a more ideal figure . Inventory is king .
