Hi there,
My name's Stephen; I'm 16 years old and I've been "domaining" since 2006. The thing is, I haven't been too successful, that's why domaining is quoted. My biggest problem is cashflow; my yearly budget is a $50 AmEx giftcard from my grandfather that I get every Christmas, but that's going to stop soon because he died and his wife probably won't send anything this year. I've owned a few low value domains, mostly pertaining to TV shows and the like. More recently I built and sold a forum for $120, only to have it promptly pissed away from a person who I thought was my friend (I used his PayPal; at the time I thought you needed a credit card to join.) I sold off the vBulletin license I had, and now my total is $43 in the PayPal and $18 on the gift card. I'm hesitant about spending it because I don't know how to properly make buying decisions. I have a bank account, but that's off limits completely to use for web dev (it's set up so that no money gets out without the permission of my mom, and she's not big into web dev.) I desperately want to be a better domainer, but I don't know how.
Is there any way you guys can help me out?
Thanks.
