Telegram CEO to leave fortune to over 100 children he fathered
-
Did people read the article? He's been doing sperm donation for 15+ years, and wants to leave his inheritance to also be split with the kids that have come from sperm donation. Isn't this a good thing?
It's not like he's personally impregnated women for 100+ children. Which it seems to be what the comments here are reacting to?
Not saying this billionaire is a saint or anything, but it really doesn't look like people here are reading past the headline...
Why not just tax the money lmao

OK new rule, when someone gets to net worth of a billion dollars we give them an award, say congratulations you win capitalism, the. Take them out the back and shoot them. Creepy fucks.

What. The. Fuck.
FTA
Mr Durov, 40, said he is the official father of six children with three partners. He started sperm donation 15 years ago and added that more than 100 babies were conceived that way.

I think I'm missing something because you don't usually donate sperm and then act like it's your children afterwards. It sounds like a creepy move to insert himself in the lives of a bunch of families.

Would have been a legend if he did though.

He can insert whatever he wants if he's leaving me a portion of his fortune.

It should be redistributed to the countries he stole it from

It's fine if they are his bastard children, just as long as he has some blood relationship to the people he redistributes the wealth to
That's not weird at all...

Hey I like this idea. I want my own dog park!

If you're a billionaire, that's 10M dollars given per child assuming no taxes
I was thinking of the logistics to set it up initially, but yeah to billionairres its probably easier to hire that out or something.

Trusts don't pay inheritance tax, and LTD companies don't pay capital gains. Loophole's everywhere, by design

Wow you kind of got to feel bad for his six real children. He says he sees no difference between any of his children. He sees no difference between the six kids he supposedly raised, or I guess his Nanny's raised I don't know, and the 95 Plus children who came from sperm donations. What a fucked up thing to say. What a bizarre way of looking at the world.

That's not the issue though I think most people think it's gross because it was specifically done to get as many progeny as possible. I'm not arguing he's a racist or bigot but the quiver full mentality is specifically racist.

Wow, his view of what makes someone your child is the absolute opposite of what I believe. Any child I raise is "my child". Anyone who considers me their mom is "my child", no matter who their biological parents are.
And, thankfully I've never been in a position to have to give one up for adoption but if so, I would say the parents who raised them are the parents, not me.
I really don't think he's their dad. If he wants to be a mysterious benefactor who gives them money because their moms used his sperm, that's not an awful thing to do, but saying they are his children is lunacy.
I sure hope he doesn't have any stepchildren, as presumably they'd be left out of this largesse.

his six real children
I mean, he fathered them. They're his biological children. And he's a billionaire, so its not like he doesn't have enough cash to spread around. No one is going hungry.
I guess his Nanny’s raised I don’t know
Right. The dude just wanted to maximize his baby-making rate. He didn't want to be a father. He just wanted to have offspring because he's in a Quiverfull cult in Silicon Valley that considers your number of children some kind of high score.
What a bizarre way of looking at the world.
That's billionaires for you. Abolish them.

In a 100 years, we're going to have wars between the scions of the various Sacred Houses of Silicon Valley, as people kill one another for being part of a heretical bloodline.

Why are all these fucking weirdos like he, Epstein, Musk obsessed with having the most progeny? Fucking malignant narcissists.
They literally think they are part of a Master Race and that their magic jizz will create a future line of ubermensch.
It's esoteric fascism.
-
Is it possibly an extension of their "line goes up" mentality? Or is there a possibility they're moving towards something more nefarious? 100 kids seems like a lot to try and manage if you're actually acknowleging them as progeny and distributing your wealth among them.
Or is there a possibility they’re moving towards something more nefarious?
The Khashoggi killing had roots in a cutthroat Saudi family feud
The cutthroat scheming within the House of Saud over the following years matches anything in the fantasy series “Game of Thrones.” The fallout extended to the United States, China, Switzerland and other countries, as the two most powerful clans of the royal family jockeyed for power. As the tension increased, the royal court around Mohammed bin Salman, the new king’s favorite son, even dared to try to kidnap a member of the Abdullah faction in Beijing in a brazen operation in August 2016 that reads like a chapter in a spy thriller.
MBS, as Salman’s son is known, became increasingly anxious and aggressive toward those he considered enemies. Starting in the spring of 2017, a team of Saudi intelligence operatives, under the control of the royal court, began organizing kidnappings of dissidents abroad and at home, according to U.S. and Saudi experts. Detainees were held at covert sites. The Saudis used harsh enhanced interrogation techniques, a euphemism for torture, to make the captives talk. They were forced to sign oaths that if they disclosed any of what happened, they would pay a severe price.
This real-life drama was described to me in a series of interviews by prominent Saudis and U.S. and European experts, in the United States and abroad, in the weeks since Khashoggi’s death. These sources had firsthand knowledge of events but asked not to be identified because they involve sensitive international matters. The information was checked with knowledgeable U.S. sources to confirm its accuracy. It helps explain the vortex of rage and lawlessness that ultimately sucked in Khashoggi, a Post Global Opinions columnist, when he entered the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul on Oct. 2.
Here’s the bottom line, for U.S. and Saudi experts who have reviewed the intelligence findings: Khashoggi was murdered by a team sent from the royal court in Riyadh, which was part of the rapid-action capability that had been organized 18 months before. Khashoggi’s provocative journalism and his ties to Qatar and Turkey had offended the increasingly autocratic crown prince, who issued a “bring him back” order in July 2018, one that wasn’t understood by U.S. intelligence until three months later, after Khashoggi’s disappearance in Istanbul.
