Would you take this risk?

Well that went pretty easy. Sold the domain and got them to forward my emails for a year (although I changed almost everything (except golf warehouse lol).

That's great. Enjoy that little windfall and good luck with Pfizer. I'll prescribe some extra Viagra just for you.

Changing email addresses is easy.

I have done it about 4 times in last 4 years. Sites including this one find the new one based on lots of things. If you are storing your credit card information on sites, why not get new credit card numbers at the same time, and just make it a clean sweep?

I used the $5,000 to buy 160 shares of Pfizer stock (a little company in the drug business). They pay a pretty decent dividend of 3.3%.

Thanks for the advice and encouragement. Now if I can just motivate myself to get rid of the other 9,000 items to simply our life.

Nice move with your little windfall. I'm sure they will be thrilled to be getting golf warehouse deals right off the bat!

I think you did need it much you did right selling it. It looks like these guys just blindly loved your short domain and hop Google would love it because it short

Personally, I think selling made sense. Anyway, good luck with your shares of Pfizer!

Thank you for the input everyone. I am working on transferring emails to a new gmail account right now. I have all the investment accounts done, credit cards, insurance, utilities, ebay, paypal, amazon.

I think you will ultimately like Gmail. At least I hope so. They are a free email service that also offers good two-factor authentication protection, as well as integration to a lot of Google services that, if you are like me, use anyway and will welcome the integration.

This is doubly so if you also carry an Android cellphone.
