I've actually met guys like that. I was just a web developer and these millionaire guys called me up and flew me to New York City. The deal didn't work out, but they showed me a lifestyle I couldn't imagine. They were gambling with $20,000 a day on ads to draw traffic into their landing pages for stuff that usually involved mobile phone charges. But then while that was bringing in traffic and cash, they were flying around having golf with advertisers, laying the ground work for wanting to go around existing PPC networks, working directly with the advertisers on their own PPC network.
