Jan Koum Net Worth and Salary: Jan Koum is a Ukrainian-born internet entrepreneur who has a net worth of $12 billion. He is the co-founder and former CEO of the popular messaging service WhatsApp. Koum and his co-founder Brian Acton sold WhatsApp to Facebook in February 2014 for $19 billion in cash and stock. Early Life: Koum was born on February 24th of 1976 in Kyiv, Ukraine, which, at the time, was part of the Soviet Union. He is of Jewish origin and grew up near Kyiv in the city of Fastiv. In 1992, when Jan was 16, he immigrated to Mountain View, California, with his mother and grandmother. A social support program helped the family move into a small, two-bedroom apartment. Koum’s father intended to join the family later, but he ended up never leaving Ukraine. At first, Jan’s worked as a cleaner at a local grocery store while his mother worked as a babysitter. Jan and his mother relied on food stamps from a local welfare office to get by. By the time he turned 18, Koum was fascinated by programming. He entered San Jose State University and worked as a security tester at Ernst & Young, where he met Brian Acton. Jan also joined a group of hackers called w00w00, where he met the future founders of Napster. Career: In late 1997, Koum was hired as an infrastructure engineer for Yahoo! Shortly after, he quit school to work full-time. Jan became good friends with Brian Acton, who also worked for Yahoo! After nine years of working for the company, the two spent a year traveling around South America. They applied to work at Facebook together, and they were both rejected. In 2009, Koum purchased an iPhone and realized the App Store was on the verge of releasing a whole new app industry. Jan had an idea for an app, so he visited his friend Alex Fishman, and they spoke for hours about Koum’s idea. He named the app WhatsApp because of its similar sound to “what’s up.” One month later, Jan incorporated WhatsApp Inc. in California. At first, WhatsApp was unpopular. But it began to be used more frequently after Apple gave apps the ability to use push notifications in 2006. Koum made WhatsApp “ping” users when they received a message, and soon after, his friends in the area began using the app in place of SMS. Jan’s app began to gain a large user base, and he convinced his friend Acton to join the company. Koum offered Acton co-founder status after Acton brought in $250,000 in seed funding. In February of 2014, Jan allowed Facebook to acquire WhatsApp for $19 billion. Jan famously took the un-signed paperwork to the same welfare office where he and his mom had to rely on when he was a kid. In the ultimately act of perseverance, Jan signed the acquisition paperwork on the door of the welfare office. In the first half of 2016, Koum sold more than $2.4 billion worth of Facebook stock. In 2018, Jan left WhatsApp and stepped down from Facebook’s board of directors. At first, people speculated that Koum had forfeited a $1 billion stock when he left Facebook; however, it was later determined he was still technically employed by Facebook and earning $450 million in stock. Real Estate and Cars: Jan has come a long way from the modest home he grew up in back in Ukraine. That home did not have hot water or heat. When he moved to California with his mother, they shared a small two-bedroom apartment. She cleaned houses and he swept floors at the local grocery. Today Jan owns around $450 million worth of real estate in California alone. In Northern California Jan owns a $100 million compound in the town of Atherton. To create the compound he spent $57 million over a four year period to acquire 5.6-acres of the most prime and most expensive real estate in the US. He proceeded to raze all the existing structures to make way for his massive custom compound. He reportedly spent $20 million on the site’s new structures. His new garage alone spans 10,000 square-feet, which is convenient because Jan is an avid car collector, especially Ferraris and air-cooled Porsches. His collection features a Ferrari F12berlinetta, a Ferrari F12tdf and several other Ferraris new and old. He also still owns his first Atherton home, a 3,700 square foot abode purchased in 2015 for $8.8 million and a nearby warehouse where he houses additional models in his car collection. Down in Malibu, Jan owns around $200 million worth of real estate. In August 2019, Jan paid $100 million for a 14,400 square-foot home on a clifftop bluff above Malibu’s Escondido beach. The seller of this home was entertainment executive Ron Meyer. In February 2021, Jan paid $87 million for the home next door. The second home spans three-acres and features a single-story main house with five bedrooms, vaulted ceilings, herringbone hardwood flooring, and floor-to-ceiling windows that open onto a vast garden. In addition to the main house, there is a guesthouse, a garden house, and an oceanfront cabana with retractable ceilings, a wet bar, and a built-in barbecue and fire pit. In the 1980s, musician Kenny Rogers owned the home. Kenny installed a “funicular” to the beach (basically a sideways elevator) without a permit. When the town found out, Kenny was forced to pay $2 million in fines. In September 2020 Jan bought Jeffrey Katzenberg’s Beverly Hills mansion for $125 million.

Angelica has three children with former husband Jose Alberto Castro. Pena Nieto also had three children from a former marriage.googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display(‘dw_inline1’); });Wealth and Mansion: In 2014, Angelica made headlines when it was revealed that a Mexican business tycoon named Juan Armando Hinojosa Cantu, who earned his fortune off government contracts, had given the actress a $7 million mansion. The tycoon reportedly received $3.5 billion worth of government contracts from Pena Nieto’s administration, many of which were given without competitor bids. Angelica would later claim that the $7 million house was not a gift but a loan that would be paid back with her own acting earnings. A Mexican financial outlet investigated how much the typical soap actress earns at Angelica’s former employer and concluded the highest-paid stars earned 5 – 8 million pesos per year. That’s the same as around $265,000 – $500,000 per year. Actors are also typically signed-on for 5 year exclusive contracts. The implication here being that it would be extremely hard to understand how Angelica could have enough personal wealth to afford a $7 million mansion.
