FT.com reports that WallStreet.com is coming up for sale and is likely to fetch ~$10,000,000, which would set a domain sale record. Gulp. Man, am I an idiot for not acting on my gut back in 1996 when I thought to myself “you know, these domains could be worth something someday.” At that time, $35 for a domain — in a world abundant of available domains — seemed like a lot for a college kid, especially when I thought I would need 10 or so to end up with a good one (I bet all 10 would have been good today). This isn’t the first time I’ve kicked myself for this, just the most public. Big question: what is happening today that I will kick myself over 10 years from now? The ironic thing is it may have nothing to do with the internet. So goes life. Good luck wallstreet.com; I’ll sit this one out. Moral of the story: trust your gut.
