Name a disease, and there’s a chance Schultz owns it. He has birdflu.com. He has H1N1.com. He has one for the deadly mosquito-borne disease, Chikungunya, and another for Marburg. And finally, there’s the jewel of his trove. Ebola.com, which Schultz bought in 2008 for $13,500.

Wow! That's a great example of how you can flip domain names, even one that have a neg connotation for big bucks. :)

That's actually quite distasteful. Couldn't and didn't want to read the whole post. Can't vote on this either.

I personally wouldn't have the heart to profit from it, but that's me though.
