The great thing about this space is that there are so many people who step up as role models, just because they are role models. (always remain cautions with who you trust).
What makes this especially interesting is there is not "typical" domainer or domain business for that matter. It's also not a regional business - it's not even "big city" based (like marketing agencies may be).
What even makes it more interesting is we can be having a conversation about domains, the industry, pricing, valuations, etc. & it doesnt matter if you are in an office in NYC, a farm in UK, your home in Africa, The Middle East, South America, China, anywhere!
What other industry can even give you the chance to find a mentor you can relate to, we have a world of them here!
