The average price a domain investor sells a domain for is around $2,000. That's a one time charge, and then after that they pay just about $10 a year to renew.

The average price a domain investor sells a domain for is around $2,000. That's a one time charge, and then after that they pay just about $10 a year to renew. And people register alternative domains rather than one an investor owns because they don't want to pay that amount. So I don't agree with your thinking. And in some countries $1,000 is a lifetime's earnings.
