Around $100 in 90's just for curiosity, not to sell it for profit. In the first years of the millennium I threw $1,000 and lost. I threw another $1000 after 2-3 years and turned it to 10k in 1 year. Never give up.

Wow! This is resilience! I would have panicked after losing the 1K!

I started with 2k ( in 2013 ). So far I have spent 200k purchasing domains.
I have 1000 domains. I never sell a domain for less than 30k. I sell 2 to 3 every year.

Don't be afraid to give up the good to go for the great.

I started with a credit card. Overall probably spent upwards of $ 1000 on domain names and got back upwards of $ 10000 from ad clicks on domain names I've developed. So it's worked out just phyne.

I started with 10K around July 2020, and wasted most of it on crappy hand reg and overpriced auctions.
Had a surprise sales of around 10K in Nov/Dec 2021 combined, and this was when I didn't want to invest any more money. So it came as a blessing. I spent that 10K plus another 5 K in the next couple months on fresh buying which set the path for my current domaining business.

So my out of Pocket was around 15K. And just to make sure I play with house money, I took out 15K from my domaining business account, and I have another 20K in reserve which I plan to continue to grow so that I can acquire a nice one word .com. All these generated from my sales.
Nice
