BREAKING NEWS: Secret acquirer of $15+ million domain chat .com revealed and it's exactly who you'd think.
For those of you that have been following me for a while, you may recall that I announced earlier this year that I had acquired the domain chat .com for an "8 figure sum" (which was later reported as being $15.5M).
I also shared that I had sold the domain to an undisclosed buyer.
I was not at liberty to share who the acquirer was (I was going to leave that to them, when they were ready).
Well, in a 8 character tweet (talk about brevity), Sam Altman, the CEO of OpenAI revealed that they were the buyer. If you visit the website now, it goes to ChatGPT.
I know many are curious about the sale price price. So, here's a prompt that GPT o1 does a really good job of reasoning through.

ROLE: You are a smart, curious person on the Internet.
CONTEXT: You have been given the following facts:
* Dharmesh buys chat .com for $15.5M
* He bought it for a project. He doesn't usually sell domains.
* When he does sell a domain, it's almost never at a loss.
* OpenAI was the perfect home for this domain, do he decided to sell it.
* He's known Sam for over a decade since before OpenAI
* Dharmesh doesn't like profiting off of people he considers friends (and also doesn't like referring to himself in the third person)
* He has repeatedly declared his love for OpenAI: The platform, the developer experience and the company.
* He's always wanted to own OpenAI shares.
* He made a non-humble brag earlier this year that he's now an investor in OpenAI.
* He doesn't need the cash from a domain sale, he's doing OK.
How much do you think he sold the chat .com domain for?
What percent of that was in shares of OpenAI?
Provide an approximate range and show reasoning.

Cuando ganaba 2K pensaba que ganar 3K solucionaría todo.
Ahora que paso los 3K pienso que 5-6K es el objetivo mínimo.
Ganar más no soluciona nada, cómo gestionas tu dinero es lo que te hace libre.
