Default Getting good domain names

Any tips on getting a good domain name and selling it later for a good price? I know there are people around doing investment by getting a nice domain name and then developing it with good websites to make it popular and then resell later for a higher price. Do you think it is a good idea?

Some people make a living just "flipping domains" buying the domains and then selling them to someone else. An easy way to do this is look at trends and if you think that a domain would cause alot of traffic then snatch the domain up. Heres an example iphone.com was purchased 10 years ago by some guy. He just thought "hmm maybe one day this might be worth something" so he sat on that domain. Well apple ended up paying him 1 million dollars for that one domain. So maybe you won't be that lucky but you can always try

iphone.com for 1 million dollars! Wow this is amazing! Never in his life he would have thought of that. Hope someone comes o me with a deal too. Not one million but less would do.

I think even some domains which are PR 5++ sell for some good $xxx++. Even in that case its worth buying them when expired and then selling.

The guy actually made a wise investment. When there is a demand for the name, then he can actually bargain for a price that he wants. He's lucky to have apple naming their product as iphone.
