Well, if you want to pay $50/year for an email account, you can bring your own domain to Gmail in the form of their "G Suite" service (formerly known as Google Apps).

As much as Google tries to promote it as a "for business" service, there are many folks I know (myself included for a number of years), that just have a single user account on there for the sake of running their own custom domain.

Of course, these days finding a good custom domain can be a real trick if you don't already have one registered. I had the luck of having a not terribly common last name, as well as registering it as ad domain name 15 years ago
