at one point i spoke to a CEO who had leased a 4-letter .com domain for 2 years for a million of dollar (i don't remember the specific amount) for their startup idea.

i imagine there are businesses which facilitate these types of transactions

That's crazy, do you know what happened to the startup? I imagine losing such a good domain after two years is quite the rocky transition

The startup is still around. I don't know what the social protocol here is about things like this, but hint.com is still doing its thing... getting doctors and patients directly connected.
