Reputed Tech Visionary To Become Actual Billionaire
Travis Kalanick is cashing in on life by cashing out on Uber.
Look who's finally ready to buy his own luxury car:
Former Uber Technologies Inc. Chief Executive Officer Travis Kalanick, who has long boasted that he’s never sold any shares in the company he co-founded, plans to sell about 29 percent of his stake in the ride-hailing company, people with knowledge of the matter said.
Kalanick stands to reap about $1.4 billion from the transaction with SoftBank Group Corp. and a consortium of investors who have agreed to buy equity valuing Uber at $48 billion, said the people, who asked not to be identified discussing private negotiations.
Enjoy retirement, Sweet Trav.
