New York trademark attorney Jeremy Green Eche is a Kamala Harris supporter who hopes the current Vice President is successful in her bid for the White House this year. But that’s not why he bought a number of web domains with her name in them back in 2020. 

In his spare time, Eche snaps up unclaimed domain names for under $10 in hopes of eventually selling them for a hefty profit. Also called domain investing, the pastime has paid off for him over the years. 

“I buy domain names that consist of combinations of two last names that I hope will end up being a major party’s presidential ticket,” Eche told CBS MoneyWatch.
