EXCLUSIVE: Brian O’Kelley says he’s capped his wealth to $100 million. The tech founder tells Fortune, billionaires are wasteful, out of touch, and “othered” from real life.
I mean, I could probably retire right now with 4 million and live comfortably. But hey, I’m not gonna fault this dude for doing the right thing here and still being wealthy. Dude put over 90% of the funds back into causes and recirculating instead of hoarding it like some sociopathic dragon.
I definitely underestimated the cost of mega yachts. But $4mil/yr is still and insane amount of money.

Oh I don’t want anything I’ve said to come off as a criticism of what he’s done. I think it’s amazing.
