BEZOS SAYS HE’LL GIVE AWAY MOST OF HIS $124B FORTUNE

-

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos said he will give away the majority of his wealth during his lifetime, becoming the latest billionair­e to pledge to donate much of his vast fortune. Bezos, whose “real-time” worth Forbes magazine estimates at roughly $124.1 billion, didn’t specify how - or to whom he will give away the money. Bezos had been criticized for not signing the Giving Pledge that encourages billionair­es to donate the majority of their wealth through philanthro­py.
