Huffpost, Bankrate
Just like Larry Page, Sergey Brin made billions of dollars as one of the co-founders of Google. Brin met Page during an orientation for new students at Stanford. Even though the pair disagree on nearly everything, they eventually “became intellectual soul-mates and close friends.” Combining their ideas, the pair began to use Page’s dormitory room as a laboratory for their computer experiments. By 1998, they finally realize the potential of their project.
“Pretty soon, we had 10,000 searches a day. And we figured, maybe this is really real,” Page recalled. After launch, Brin served as the president of Alphabet Inc. until stepping down in 2019. However, he still remains a controlling shareholder and board member. Unsurprisingly, Brin is the 14th richest people in the world, with a fortune of $48.5 billion as of 2020.
