pizza.com Sold For $2.6m

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the meanwhile-people-are-losing-their-homes dept.

f8d noted a beeb bit on the fact that the pizza.com domain name was sold for a ridiculous 2.6m bucks. Can there be a bubble and a recession at the same time, or do the two cancel each other out like Penn & Teller?

    If it makes you feel any better, FTFA: "Mr Clark registered the domain name in 1994..."

    *sign*

    1: learn the difference between profit and profit margin.

    2: "millions of people" are not getting losing their homes. You're off by an entire order of magnitude - which makes it pretty clear that you're just spewing hyperbole

    2.a: The majority of the people who will lose their homes *lied* on their applications. That's right. They lied so that they could get a $300k McMansion on their 30k salary. Had they been honest, they couldn't have gotten that big a loan, but then they might have had to *gasp* live within their means, and we Americans just can't have that, now can we.
