I made history....

[Day Dreamer]

I want my names back!

[mis_chiff]

and so began the History of "Sucks to be him"

hindsight is a tool we should have all been born with, not just the millionaires LOL

 

[Day Dreamer]

People keep asking me....Dude, why did you not pay? I get so pissed. When we registered all of the words of the dictionary, they told us we OWNED the names. There was no "annual" crap or fee.

Plus I was like 23 and did not have a million bucks. Pissed me off. I watched loans.com sell for 3 million and I owned it. What a joke.

 

[mis_chiff]

I couldn't even imagine that

 

[Day Dreamer]

It was excruciating. My attorneys were like "there's nothing we can do". Clinton and his damn brother in law ran Network Solutions.

 

[DN BROKER]

your a millionaire - you still have more then the rest of us can count.

 

[Day Dreamer]

Not really. I give most of it away to Jesus. I'm just saying. It makes me mad.

 

[mis_chiff]

My name is Jesus :hehe:

I think they were still giving free regs away when I started, and I thought
"Who'd want one of those" LOL

 

[DN BROKER]

Jesus never gets MAD why would you?

 

[twomoon]

Wow! Interesting.

And how much you needed to pay for a domain registration in 1991?

Did I understand well: you didn't renew all these domains? Or you registered it for free and they asked you to pay?

Sorry, maybe these questions are stupid but don't clearly understand why it happened?

 

[Day Dreamer]

Mischeff- Yeah my Dad was sitting on the couch saying.... Domain names? what the hell is a domain name?

MOON- Yes, from 1981-1991 they were FREE and we were told we OWNED them. So naturally when I get a bill for 922K I get pissed.

 

[DN BROKER]

Then [Jesus] said to them, 'Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; a man's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.'"
Luke 12:15

Thanks! Wow, really crazy times Can't even imagine how it was.

Amen....

I am so glad I am not rich and that this does not apply to me. I am glad however that God blesses me with a rich and abundant life.

out of all of my names I used to own, I wish I had love.com back. That one really hurt.

My dear friend and brother from another Mother, your love for Jesus is enough! Everything else is nothing but distraction! Think about it this way, you would not be the person you are today if you had kept those names! Maybe not even alive! That money could have resulted in bad luck! We will never know, you will find more valuable things in life and in the afterlife that are priceless in value!

God Bless

oh one last note, please keep your money in your own pocket. Jesus would never ask its neighbours for donations or have institutions collecting donations to spread its love. I'm against donations!

If I had of kept those names, I would have been able to fund seattlerevival.com and did evangelism full time!

Makes you wonder why the known moguls like Carlos Slim, don't bother with the Domaining business. 23 million dollars is just bird droppings to them. They could have bought all the domain names in the planet. Can you be accused of Anti-Trust in the domaining business?

Perhaps they're already making 23 million dollars a month, just trading the stock market.

Brother one cannot predict what he or she would have been able to achieve on assumptions!

You have done well for yourself, its time for you to accept the POWER OF NOW!

Money brings comfort! That's all!

The entire history of MANKIND on this planet does not even add up to a nano second VS the existence/age of the UNIVERSE. Now compare a Human Life!

Good fortune is not for everyone .. Mr Fischer was not blessed with good fortune..
