Bezos Forgoes Extra Pay: A Founder's Wealth Philosophy

Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon, didn't take extra money like bonuses while he was CEO.

He felt his big ownership in the company was already enough reward.

He made only $80,000 a year!

Bezos believed that true success is about how much wealth you create for others, like the people who own Amazon stock.

He pointed out that he had created trillions of dollars in wealth for others.

This idea is similar to other tech leaders like Mark Zuckerberg and Warren Buffett, who also take low salaries.

They focus on building value instead of just earning a lot of money.
