Why would I want a domain name?

I know it sounds like a silly question but the truth is I have no idea why I would want a domain name. Please educate me and tell me exactly what I could use a domain name for (e.g. asdfghj.com). For example how could someone send an email to me at patrick@asdfghj.com) What would I have to do to achieve such a thing?

Craig,

Thanks for that. In truth I would only really like email forwarding and a domain name so that I can have a more intuitive email address. I don't have a need for a website.

p.s. I'll wait to see if others come up with anything more on the matter.
Craig,

Thanks for your input, I shan't be buying a domain name as it's not worth the money. My current email address is perfectly good enough.

Patrick
