He still lives in an old house in a regular neighborhood. His priciest possession a 15 years old Blackberry phone, it’s case so worn out the paint’s coming off.
When he travels, it’s always economy class. He reserves private jets only for urgent business. He doesn’t drive a luxury car. He uses his daughter’s old second hand Ford Explorer for everyday rides. He turns down six figure speaking fees, choosing instead to teach at Schools in low income neighborhood for free.
He donates 60% of his autobiography royalties to a Veteran’s foundation, so where did his money go?
