Feels good

Happy to loose money to do it
Have cash, resources and staff on hand to make it happen

Any help?

Design and build a folly then set up a site to market follies world wide fits all the all the above

I've been racking my brains for years but mine needs to make money!

Have a look at springwise.com you get some novel business ideas on there.

I admire the altruistic nature of a lot of members of this forum, I've seen it many times over the years (I know my join date says 2009, but I've been here forever, reborn in 2009

)

Whatever you decide to do Doug, I wish you all the best.

P.S. Can I have carrentals from you? I'll look after it I promise

Put all of your domains and companies into a separate entity and start
domaining again......from scratch, using all of your skill and knowledge.

Only use hand reg's and/or spend no more than �100 on any one domain, except if you're trading up. No dropcatching.
Prove that it can be done, here , now, in 2011 starting with nothing.
Prove that not starting in the late 90's is no barrier to success.
Shut all the whingers up who say it's too late/all the best names have gone.
Keep a record of your progress here on Acorn, it will be an inspiration to
all newbies and even experienced domainers. Seeing your progress will spark
people into action.

Surely the ultimate challenge, the opportunity to become a legend !!!
