Largest Domain Name Sale Ever

70 million dollars for ai.com

First of all congrats to my favorite football team who won the Super Bowl™ yesterday.

As usual, the game was boring, the commercials were offensive and the halftime show was spectacular. An added bonus: this year the halftime performance became a big fuck you to senile racist criminal pervert Donald Trump and his dumbass group of murderous losers.

I teach our children to not have regrets, but I must admit I am constantly regretting not going all-in on the domain name business. In the 90s I ended up making a small fortune by accident by selling top level .com domains, but if I had raised even ten thousand dollars in 1995 when I first started buying names for my own projects and just used the cash to pick off valuable domains at twelve bucks apiece … sigh.
