Man on a Mission: He Made a Fortune When He Sold BuyDomains – Now Michael Mann Wants to Change the World With WashingtonVC

Mike Mann is driven. He wants to make money – lots of money. Of course, that doesn’t exactly make him unique. The thing that’s different about Mann, who has already made tens of millions of dollars, is that his primary reason for chasing greenbacks is to give them away. He’s been doing it for years through the well-known Grassroots.org foundation he started and he will step up his efforts with Make Change! Trust through its new website that just launched.
