Telegram billionaire Pavel Durov to leave $17B to 100+ kids conceived through sperm donation
Move over Elon Musk, there is a new eccentric billionaire in town, and he has brought babies. Pavel Durov, the reclusive Russian tech mogul behind the messaging app Telegram, casually revealed in a recent interview that he has fathered over 100 children. Yes, one-zero-zero. And yes, your group chat app guy just turned into a global superdad. Wait… Telegram's founder is basically a real-life Nick Cannon? The 40-year-old entrepreneur told French magazine Le Point that he has six 'official' children across three partners, but the real twist? The other 90-plus kids came from his anonymous sperm donations. Apparently, this tech titan has been handing out 'high quality donor material' like Silicon Valley hands out funding rounds. Billionaire dad energy: All his kids will inherit the empire Durov, who has an estimated net worth of $17.1 billion (cue gasp), has big plans for his growing offspring army. He reportedly wants all of them, natural-born or donor-conceived, to have equal rights to his empire. But there is a catch straight out of a drama series: they will not see a single dime until 30 years from now. He apparently believes his kids need to 'live like normal people' before unlocking their golden ticket. Basically, no billionaire trust fund babies flexing Rolexes in nappies, not on Durov's watch. From sperm clinic to dad of a hundred This all started when a friend asked Durov for a sperm donation due to fertility issues. He agreed, and the sperm clinic director apparently told him that his genes were too premium not to share. Fast-forward to now: he has helped over 100 couples across 12 countries become parents. And he is only just coming to terms with the magnitude. In a throwback Telegram post, Durov marvelled at how this could even happen for someone who has never been married and likes to fly solo. Well, sir, the math is giving legendary. Telegram founder or tech cult leader? Durov insists he will not play favourites and wants to avoid inheritance drama posthumously. His approach to fatherhood may be chaotic-good, but one thing is clear, the man is building the most elite cousin group chat the world has ever seen.
