With this announcement, Bezos joins the list of other billionaires in the world, such as Bill Gates, who have decided to give away their wealth during their lifetimes. After expressing his desire to remove himself from the list of billionaires, Gates donated $6 billion to his Foundation, which runs programs across the world.
