Default Jeff Bezos plans to give most of his £110bn fortune away

[Jeff Bezos has revealed plans to give away
most of his $124bn (£110bn) fortune
during his lifetime.
The Amazon founder, 58, is the world's
second-richest man after Elon Musk,
the Tesla boss and new owner of Twitter,
according to Forbes.

This is the first time he has said he plans
to give away most of his money.


Mr Bezos has been criticised in the past
for not signing the Giving Pledge,
a campaign founded by Warren Buffett and Bill Gates
to encourage the mega rich to contribute
most of their wealth to charity.

Asked directly by CNN whether
he planned to give most of his money away,
Mr Bezos said: "Yeah, I do."]
