Jeff Bezos will donate most of his 124,000 million to climate change

The journalist and now philanthropist, Lauren Sánchez, also participated in the interview.

The hard part is figuring out how to do it in a leveraged way,” Bezo said, implying that he also seeks to maximize his return. “It is not easy. Building Amazon was not easy.

Bezos’s methodical plan is far from the approach of his philanthropist and businessman’s ex-wife, MacKenzie Scott, who in less than a year said she has donated more than $3.8 billion to 465 different organizations.

It is worth mentioning that this is not the only billionaire who has highlighted his intentions to donate his fortune throughout his life. In July, Microsoft founder Bill Gates announced that he is donating all of his wealth to his foundation to address “accumulating global crises” such as health, poverty and equality.
