What does $1,000 mean to you?

[equity78]

Namepros is a pretty diverse place, members from every continent except for Antarctica. Discussions take place about money where many see their opinion as fact. Examples:

That's not a lot of money

I don't get out of bed for less than $5,000

Anyone can afford to blow 100 .com regs in a year

People pronounce their desire to never sell to a domainer, or buy from one. People talk about how they don't flip names for a couple hundred dollars. Of course everyone is entitled to their opinion and free to do what they like.

But what does $1,000 tied up in domain names mean to you? Can you afford to lose it? Can you renew said $1,000 for 1 year, 5 years, 10 years? What about profiting $1,000 in a year?

Vote in the poll.

Guess I'm first to vote......Voted
If I profit $1,000 changes little and I could afford to lose it

$1,000 is a good deal of money to me.

Both 3 and 4 alternatives are the same.

I don't think they do, I think there are people such as @AbdulBasit.com that makes more than $1,000, yet consider it a good deal of money.

It is a good deal of money however it doesnt change much in life especially living in the usa ..buying domains and Bills I blow through 1k like drinking a glass of water

I shall move to Antarctica to fix this problem and I hear it's nice and cool there.

Population - 1,106, hmm

It does not differentiate Abdul that makes over $1k/mo with someone that makes less than $1k/mo because in both cases it is a good deal of money.
I voted 4 as well
We are poor lol

A thousand by itself may not be make or break but multiply it some and win or lose it can start making a big difference.

If I had a dollar for every time someone offered me a 1000 for a domain...

[Pramanthas]

Ever think about an auction you could have won if you had outbid one more time?

That $1000 will seem more precious.

 

[Tunababa8v]

$1000 will fix a lot of things for me.

1) Pay my rent for a whole year,

2) Pay my kid's school fees for three terms straight

So yea, $1000 is a good deal of money to me only because the '' thousand is in dollar'' though.

Change the dollar sign to naira and the thousand will only get me 2 handregs .com on netsol

 

[maksimfa]

Would I be okay losing it? No.
Can I lose it? I suppose... would not like to and it is all about calculating those costs.

I suppose when my .pics/photos renewed by mistake and was $1k in the hole I was a bit pissed... but did not go broke as a result.

I look at it this way... $1,000 can buy me another VERY good gun on which I won't lose money. lol.

Tip money, schoolboy cash, $1000 is.

But it will buy me some toys, a decent drone and shit like that, so

 

[briguy]

If I recently got into domaining, a $1000 loss that was based on speculation would be enough of a reason to get out of domaining.

Would it affect my offline life today . no!

 

[Furquan]

$1K means lot for me, I glad that I found this domaining as its pay me much more. I live in a village near the "Mumbai" here you can buy a whole day foods for just $3.

 

[BRANDERX]

To us Jordanians, 1k is not much these days, it covers a few hours of heating a day, for a month.

That's because, Amman ranked most expensive Arab city, 28th worldwide.

$1,000 = 700 JDs

so, I voted "it's a good deal of money to me" because the majority of my fellow citizens struggle to get it.

Thanks

 

[vinothayyavu]

As a indian . 1K is more money for us. But it depends on which city we are living in.

(1K is dust if we live in Chennai,Bangalore,delhi or mumbai) . I am from Chennai paying monthly rend as $250.

If i stay on my vilage. I can run a month with 100$.

$1,000 is a good deal of money to me.
$1000= 140,000 pk rupees and I do earn in 6 figures monthly but its still a bit less than $1000
