How many times have you read or heard on the news that someone
hit a state lottery?
Winning Millions of Dollars.
The odds of winning a major state / multi-state lottery is for
example: 1 in 120,526,770 is your chance of winning the most
popular multi-state lottery in the U.S. Power Ball.
Trying to guess which of the 1 to 53 and 1 Powerball number from
1 to 42 will come out on is mind boggling and to make it even
tougher; the rule is that you must get the 1 in 120,526,770
right on the night that you play.
No holding onto your ticket and see if it comes out in a couple
of weeks. If you don’t hit it on the date on your ticket. You
can just trash your hard earned $1.00. If you purchased plays 10
then, just lost 10 of your hard earned dollars!
There is BETTER game for you to play with better chances to win
(sort of speak)! One day as I was cruising down the information
highway I came across some information that made me slamon my
breaks! People were playing the NEW Lottery!
This Game is so cheap that it comes out to about
0.025342465753424657534246575342466 (my trusty calculator) per
day to play. Being terrible with numbers I’m not even going to
attempt to figure out what the odds of hitting this lottery is!
One thing I’m sure of… this NEW Lottery has to have much better
odds! What makes it special to me is; it’s for those of US who
love letters and words. I called it the Name Game. One Play gets
yu a whole year to hit! Just about anyone can play it for less
than pennies a day (refer to the 0.025 number above ….)
Simply come up with a domain name and buy it. Within days you
could be on your way to Literally Millions!
Imagine if you were the one who came up with and bought
Business.com. You would have hit that Name Lottery for $8
million dollars! Yes, 8 Million! I repeat, that’s $8,000,000,00!
Business.com is the current record holder for that highest paid
domain name. It took the spot from Compaq who paid something
like $3.300,000,00 million for the the domain Altavista.com back
in February 3, 2000. You probably recognize the Altavista name
now but before Compaq bought it, it was likely a big dude in the
world of internet. Has these Million Dollar Figures made you
decide to Play the Domain Lottery. If so here is a tip or two to
get you started. The most popular web address (not the same as
email address) end in .COM. The second most popular is .NET
The absolute major combination hit is to have a .COM consisting
of just one word i.e. business.com if that isn’t available go
for it’s sister version business.net. These names all go for
just under $10.00. (If they aren’t already taken!
Just thought of one could you could you hold on please while I
go check it out? …………..Thank you for waiting but business.TV is
already taken and is probably up for sale. Once you purchase a
domain name it’s yours. You can transfer it, let it just sit
there or SELL IT!
In fact there is so much money to be made in domain names that
there are companies who do just that. They put you domain name
up for sale on their site!
You are charged a listing fee; usually starting at about $50.00
to $250.00. If your domain is sold through their site you are
charged a commission fee which can be anywhere between 5 – 10%
of the purchase price. During my research for this article, I
came across one which charges just $0.79 yes 79 cents to list a
domain name and NO Commission fees.

All in all when you are getting paid $8 Million for simply
coming up with a name. I’d say that’s a great way to hit any
lottery, without having to get dressed, hurry to the convenient
store before the deadline cut-off time!
What would I do if I hit one of these lotteries? I must state
like many other multi-million lottery winners. I keep working
because words and writing is a part of me! Happy Domaining to
You All!
