Sueing him for the potential lost income based on the resale of the domain is a little ridiculous though.

This was me in 96 when i bought INTERLAND.COM

I am just lost here. I’m 20. I have 4 figures to my name. I’ve spent ~$500 in consultations, one with a local attorney who laughed at me and told me I was “screwed” and would need an NY attorney, and an NY attorney who told me that this guy would eat me alive and my best chance is to plead guilty and file for bankruptcy to save myself the stress of travel. I don’t know what to do here. When I look back on the incident, in principle I feel as if what I did wasn’t very smart. I had no idea I was entering a binding contract by exchanging those emails, it was like a casual sale to me. Obviously I had no idea this would blow to a 6-figure ordeal. I don’t want to sound desperate, but I feel like a minnow who is now being swam around by a shark, a 40-year-old guy with an amazing life and all the money in the world, and now he wants every cent I’ve ever had and wants to put a huge scar on my life over a domain name. In the complaint (which I will attach if requested) he cites me as the owner of www.TheCraigSnyder.com – a publisher and consultant. He is very likely under the impression that I have $150,300 and that I am around his age, as if that matters, but that’s not my situation.

Good read!
