Good early Sunday morning, my brothers and sisters in progressive domaining; this is Father Domainicus with a message about those investing time and shekels in “domain leasing.”
Many a progressive domainer have asked me: Father Domainicus, what do I have to do to succeed in leasing my domain names?
The question hit me harder than a sack of pistachio nuts falling from the 20th floor of a Manhattan condo, exactly the height of Brother Elliot’s former residence.
Leasing domains is thought by many scholars and domain investors as ‘whoring‘. I repeat this biblical word with difficulty, as it’s an act containing a metaphor depicting sins of the flesh.
Domain leasing is like giving your beloved wife out to the Sodomites – and the residents of Gomorrah – to do as they please with her, for a fistful of local currency.
But ‘oy vey, Father‘, you may ask – ‘if Rick Schwartz is leasing domains in a joint venture, how is this permitted by our Domain Lord?‘
My dear children in domaining, Rick Schwartz is leasing the domains of others, not of his own. He is a smart entrepreneur in full knowledge of the Mosaic Law, particularly this part from Domaineronomy 4:69:
“And thou shalt not provide thy wife as a mistress or as a whore to a merchant or warrior or passing-by traveler, unless they provide one-tenth of their crops, beer and equal weight in lamb meat blessed by a rabbi…”
As brutal as it may sound, leasing one’s domains can be done within the ascribed law of our Domain Lord, if the rules of transaction are defined in the holy domain books.
In the proverbial nutshell: transact with careful hands and minds, and a heart eager to love and cherish what you’re doing. If you are not prepared to act in this manner, then domain leasing could be destructive of your very soul.
Until next time, I leave you with my blessings and a friendly touch across both your cheeks.
~Father Domainicus.
