I think for my family, I made the right decision 
Heck I started from yahoo groups a few years back 
I still own a few gambling domains.. and I know where I can buy more cheap hehe ..
For the other folks looking to sell..
I didn’t sell because of the law effecting the sites sold.. I intend to create new sites, and let them grow in the SERPS banner free for awhile.. which is what i would have done with these..
However.. most all of my income comes from writing gambling content.. that gone for now, I sold for cash.. not for fear.. when you need cash.. you start looking at your assets..
