Larry Page, the co-founder of the internet behemoth Google and the long-standing CEO of Alphabet, embarked on a momentous journey in December of 2019 when he chose to retire from the corporate helm. His decision was propelled by a heartfelt desire to devote more precious moments to his cherished family. Page’s financial standing, a testament to his groundbreaking innovations, places his net worth at a staggering over $60 billion.
Beyond his professional pursuits, Page dons the mantle of a philanthropist, guided by a moral compass that remains unwavering. His unwavering principles were notably demonstrated when he severed communication with his Google co-founder, Sergey Brin, upon the discovery of contentious emails between Brin and a younger colleague on the latter’s computer—a situation that Page found to be at odds with his values.
