Is your goal to play cat and mouse to extract quick profits, or are you investing for the long term. Neither is wrong, it just makes sense to chose one or the other and act accordingly. 4. List 5 websites you think are amazing. Why are they amazing. 5. Create 5 different domain names. Make at least 1 of them funny.
