I bought several hundred back in the early 2000s for $35 a pop through Network Solutions (ouch). I was 100% convinced that I would be very wealthy selling each of them at some point in the future. I had a German company interested in buying one of them for $50K, but it never went through. I've ended up letting all but 20 or so lapse over the years, so for me, its been a bust.

Domain squatting?

All the good ones are taken. This should have been brought up 14 years ago if you wanted to make money at it.
