In 1998, John Ferber with the help of his brother Scott started Advertising.com.
It's a great domain name. They helped online publishers connect with advertisers.
In 2004, the Baltimore kids, they were in their thirties, sold the venture to America Online in a highly publicized deal.
What do you do when you make money that quickly?
John bought four homes, including a woodland cabin and Florida beachfront property, plus cars, cars, cars -- among them a Ford GT40, a Range Rover, a Bentley, a Lotus and a 1975 Trans Am.
How do people treat you when you have lots of moolah?
"In some ways it was fantastic, but people treat you differently. Some people were like, 'Congratulations!' But most people wanted us to invest in their companies. One of my board members told me, 'The more the company grows, the more you are going to feel alone.'
. . . That was true. If I'm hanging out with my friends who are successful Internet entrepreneurs, we talk about things we buy and places we go, but if I'm hanging out with other people sometimes I feel guilty if things come out of my mouth that sound like I'm bragging. I got a lot of animosity and paranoia --not from my closest friends but from the second tier of friends and those who worked for me.
When I meet people, one of the first questions they ask is, 'How do you know if a girl likes you for you and not your money?'
I'd be foolish to tell you I'm not more sexually attractive to girls now. You can read about me on the Internet; I drive a flashy car. My big problem at the end of the day is that you can't separate money from everything else. It is all a part of who I am."
Today John Ferber has a charity Web site MicroGiving, which connects donors to those in need.
Another one of his company, MyMojo, is an advertising-supported music and mobile-content company. He also owns USO Networks, which optimizes video search engines.
