When I started writing this, my first sentence was “The time for making easy money with domain names has passed.” It didn’t take me long to realize, though, that there never really has been any easy money in domains.

Lets face it, you can't get rich from parking your domain at sites like sedo, godaddy unless you have a huge amount of type-in traffic. For newbie domainers, its far too risky to invest into a domain name without knowing the "actual value" of the domain. It takes years of experience to identify the good and profitable domain names and the ability to grab domain names at a good price.
BUT YOU CAN'T GO WRONG WITH DEVELOPING DOMAIN NAMES
I've known some domainers who buy good generic domains, develop it, build traffic and sell a few months later for a few thousand thousand dollars. It doesn't cost a bomb to develop your domains. For domainers with limited web development skills, there are some free out-of-the-box scripts for developing domain names such as :

That is some neat advice. Thanks for the resource!
Just to give an idea of a site that is still under "work in progress"... Checkout Downline.com. This is a domain I bought last year with a trickle of daily type-in traffic (about 15-20 type-ins/day) but it is a very commonly used word in a multi-billion dollar MLM/Network marketing industry.
We took some free articles from some article sites, hired a few ghost-writers to write some articles and build it into a MLM Downline resource center. Today, our traffic has grown many times more than just the type-ins and pretty soon, I am sure that it will be highly ranked in the SEs for the keyword "downline".
We tend to sell ads on the site and I think to earn a few hundred dollars per month from a simple development project like this is easy. Remember, this is defensive, recurring passive income, every month!
