Chamath Palihapitiya estimates his wealth at somewhere between $10 billion and $15 billion
Chamath Palihapitiya has already drafted the next chapter in his charmed-life story.
The immigrant kid who bootstrapped his way into riches at Facebook Inc., made billions as a risk-hungry investor and became the pied piper of the current blank-check craze now envisions himself as nothing less than the Warren Buffett of the Reddit era. Nobody s going to listen to Buffett, Palihapitiya, the founder of Social Capital, said in a Bloomberg Front Row interview. But there has to be other folks that take that mantle, take the baton and do it as well to this younger generation in the language they understand.
