*Meet the Billionaire Who Chose Giving Over Glory: Chuck Feeney* Chuck Feeney, co-founder of Duty Free Shoppers (DFS), redefined what it means to be wealthy. Unlike many billionaires who accumulate assets and live lavishly, Feeney made it his mission to *give it all away*—quietly and humbly. — Over his lifetime, he donated nearly *8 billion* to global causes like healthcare, education, poverty alleviation, and peacebuilding. — He did it anonymously through his foundation, *The Atlantic Philanthropies*, only revealing his identity years later. — By the time his foundation closed, Chuck had less than *2 million* to his name. His reason? *"Dying rich is a failure."* He lived in a modest apartment, wore a $15 watch, and flew economy—while quietly transforming lives around the world. Feeney reminds us that true success isn’t in how much you keep, but in how much good you create with what you’ve been given. A legacy not built on luxury—but on love for humanity. *Forward | Share | React*
