    You just know someone bought that domain hoping to turn it into a gangbusters online clothes retailer and the best they could manage to do is camp on it and sell it.

    Could’ve been Bezos, instead was a bozo.

      Were they a bozo, though? If they sold that domain to FB, there is a great chance they just banked like gangbusters.

        I suppose it depends on your outlook. I’d rather have had the passive income over time paid in stock options that multiply in value that I can get interest free loans against to file tax losses than the one time payout you have to pay gains on.
