Maybe 5-6 years ago I bought tgood.com for $300, negotiated down from $3,000. In 2014 I sold it to TGOOD Electric Co. out of China – their market cap at the time was ~$7B and a co-founder messaged me via Facebook. I was set on never selling it; that TGOOD was to become my VIRGIN brands. Over the years I tested different blog concepts on it. However, their offer was one I couldn't refuse and has provided a nice personal runway. My cousins law firm handled the dialog and it took 3-4 months from start to finish… since this nickname was originated by my birth name, I gave my parents about a third of the proceeds.
