So in an try and turn into extra minimalist over right here – AND – elevate a bit cash for my chilly and hungry homeless mates, I’m tackling one of many hardest areas identified to entrepreneurs:
OUR HORDE OF DOMAIN NAMES!!
Which, after all, are ALL superior and price MILLIONS of {dollars} if we ever get them off the bottom, however as Derek Sivers is fond of claiming – concepts are value nothing until executed 😉 And, effectively, regardless of how a lot I’d like to execute on ALL of those I’m fairly certain if I haven’t achieved it prior to now 10 years I by no means will…
However possibly YOU might use certainly one of these?! Maybe certainly one of these domains is the lacking puzzle to lastly getting your individual ardour venture off the bottom?!
If that’s the case I’d like to make a take care of you right now!! You donate some cash to assist replenish my Group Fund (that goes 100% to my poor – but constructive! – mates residing on the streets) and I’ll offer you a website identify of your selecting in return 🙂
It’s a win-win-win!!
Listed below are the domains up for the taking:
*******
#1) PFBloggers.com
That is an old style one picked up in the course of the Rockstar Finance days of 2013, and we have been going to make use of it for our group’s first Weblog Listing. We ended up merging it nonetheless with RF itself so it by no means turned its personal standalone website, however I’ve held onto it ever since simply in case I wished to construct out one other listing once more… which sadly nonetheless doesn’t exist in our house, even in any case these years 🙁
However possibly you might be the one to get one operating once more? 🙂 It’s a wonderfully direct identify for one, proper?
And apparently sufficient, after plugging it into the Wayback Machine, I discovered it was really at one time a house for monetary creators again in 2008!
The Private Finance Bloggers Community (PF Bloggers for brief) at the moment consists of seven blogs that write about private finance and frugal residing. We aren’t finance professionals however simply regular folks with targets for a life freed from debt and fear.
How cool is that? You may even recall a number of the unique founders of it when you’ve been round for some time:
- Vast Open Pockets

#2. PFChat.com
This was one other area we have been going to make use of for the boards of Rockstar Finance (2014), but additionally obtained merged into one essential hub… However what a brief and candy identify for an internet group??! Or perhaps a portal or weblog connected to a enterprise or app or one thing within the monetary house? It could actually make for a straightforward to recollect redirection url too, although after all in my view it’s robust sufficient to dwell by itself 🙂
That is gonna be the one which’s hardest to depart with as I nonetheless very a lot love the identify and wish to maintain out hope that finally I’ll make use of it!, however once more if I haven’t touched it in 9 years then odds are I’m not going to… 😭

#3. MoneyLatte.com Now Gone!! Get pleasure from it, Jessica!
Okay – now this one is my favourite out of ALL my unused domains, and 100% what I’d construct my subsequent weblog on if I ever wanted to begin a brand new one from scratch… Simply consider all that natural visitors you’d get from speaking about saving cash on espresso advert nauseam! 🤣
However seeing how I ended up shopping for BudgetsAreSexy again for good, I don’t assume I’d have the power to handle one other one, though I’ve been tempted with sharing brief – fast – bites of finance to assist folks begin their day higher (just like what caffeine does to you! Heyo!), so for that route this is able to make an ideal dwelling, however once more will I ever pull the set off on it??! Most likely not.
So it’s all yours if you wish to steal my concept!! 🙂

#4. DebtDrop.org
I really like this area a lot too. And even dubbed certainly one of our initiatives “Debt Drop” again within the day once I used to accomplice up with Melanie Lockert of DearDebt.com to share some love…
We used to go round anonymously paying off chunks of debt for folks, after which picked up this area in case we ever wished to make it an “official” venture. After 2-3 years we took a break, however alas I’ve been renewing it ever since and quietly holding my tears again because it sits there gathering mud 😢
Out of all of the domains that is the one I’d like to see somebody take over probably the most and proceed placing out GOOD on the earth as we nonetheless want a lot assist on the market, specifically round debt. It’s so crushing to folks!!

BUT.
When Jay Cash and I have been doing our Love Drop nationwide tour in 2011, we had to purchase a URL for a brand new website we have been constructing, and Jay had to assist me with the identify. For no matter motive he simply wouldn’t do it, and I advised him that if he didn’t give me his ideas by the tip of the day, I used to be simply going to call it Squidpants Worldwide.
He didn’t, so I did.
I purchased the URL and put up an image I took of him that day shopping for a lottery ticket and telling me why he was too busy to assist me with the identify. What you see is the complete web site.
Right here we’re, 13 years later, once I get my annual invoice for renewing the URL, and I proceed to pay for it, simply because the joke nonetheless makes me chortle every time I give it some thought. Additionally as a result of it brings again many good reminiscences of working collectively, stressing out, laughing lots, and placing some love into the world 🖤
Glad web site anniversary, you jackass.”
