If you don't need money there's not really any reason to sell something for it.

I deal in this industry. It's not always about needing the money or not needing it. It about gambling that the that offer of 1 million actually could be 2 million. You'd be surprised at how even ordinary people think when they get wind that they have something valuable.

Fun Fact: I bought a domain name for a reasonable price off a patent troll company. Was actually one of the easier and most surprising transactions I ever did.

These guys down sound like squatters. They just have had the domain their entire lives and don't really care to sell it.
I guess the "not needing money" part is something I've never experienced.
