Telegram Founder to Share $14 Billion Fortune with Over 100 Children

Pavel Durov, the creator of Telegram, has a lot of kids, over 100!

He's decided to give his $14 billion fortune to all of them.

Some of his children were born naturally, and others were conceived through his sperm donations.

Each child will receive a large sum of money.

Durov wants his kids to wait 30 years before getting the money, so they can learn to be independent and build their own lives.

Whether some of the kids know Durov is their father depends on the type of donation and the laws in their countries.
