The domain isn't bad but isn't worth the price you paid given you did absolutely no legwork on what you were actually going to put ON it. The domain being a good one is great for SEO, branding and all that, but it's not as if that field isn't extremely competitive. That said, do talk to the people that are willing to help you out and hopefully learn stuff from them. The fact that you paid $350k for a domain that as an investment domain is probably $100k at best without ANY plan or clue on development is what people are giving you shit for, but the good news is that at the least, you have a strong domain now, so run with it and do something...something other than redirecting traffic or doing anything that doesn't take advantage of the quality of the domain, or you basically spent $350k on the type-in traffic the domain gets, which would obviously be a bad deal. You want to GROW the traffic and redirecting it won't grow shit.

One last thing - you mentioned somewhere in the middle of the thread "see what you can do with $10k in 10 years" or whatever tf you were saying on investing $10k. Funny that you should say that having dumped 6-figures on a domain...domain names CAN BE some of the best investments of money you can make, and a handful of people here including me make a living buying and selling domains, making insane ROIs. I started with the tiny bit of spare money I had and turned it into a 6-figures/year business in 3 years doing it part-time around my weak ass day job. I shouldn't have to tell you that though, because you should probably realize the person that sold you CamGirls.com made a nice chunk of profit.
