If you can't get .com, should you go .net & .org?

[marc100]

My long term goal is to spend a few years building a site and then sell it to a company. I did it once before but didnt make bank. Now I want to do it smarter and in a niche that is bigger than my first one.

The .com domain name I want is taken by someone who wants $1,400 for it. I do have the .org though.
Do many .net's or .org's become successful and/or sell for great money? Or is it an uphill battle not being .com?

I'm debating if I should just build the site on .org?
Look for a different .com?
Bite the bullet and pay the $1,400 for the name I want. Hey its a tax deduction.
