Jan Henric Buettner: Why a $10B Founder Came Back to Build a Chess Startup at 60 | DSH #1640

It doesn't work, right?

Jan Henric Buettner: Why a $10B Founder Came Back to Build a Chess Startup at 60 | DSH #1640

Inheritance?

Digital Social Hour
Jan Henric Buettner: Why a $10B Founder Came Back to Build a Chess Startup at 60 | DSH #1640

Yeah.

Jan Henric Buettner: Why a $10B Founder Came Back to Build a Chess Startup at 60 | DSH #1640

It doesn't work.

Digital Social Hour
Jan Henric Buettner: Why a $10B Founder Came Back to Build a Chess Startup at 60 | DSH #1640

A lot of studies on how it actually harms.

Digital Social Hour
Jan Henric Buettner: Why a $10B Founder Came Back to Build a Chess Startup at 60 | DSH #1640

It harms, exactly.

Jan Henric Buettner: Why a $10B Founder Came Back to Build a Chess Startup at 60 | DSH #1640

For example, I didn't inherit anything and I built everything from my own and I'm very...

Jan Henric Buettner: Why a $10B Founder Came Back to Build a Chess Startup at 60 | DSH #1640

I mean, you go through so much struggle and so many problems when you do it.

Digital Social Hour
Jan Henric Buettner: Why a $10B Founder Came Back to Build a Chess Startup at 60 | DSH #1640

But when you're finally successful, I'm sure with you, the same with what you have built here, you are so proud of what you have been doing.

Jan Henric Buettner: Why a $10B Founder Came Back to Build a Chess Startup at 60 | DSH #1640

And I don't want to take this away from my kids to do something on their own rather than to just, I get this pile of money and then whatever.

Jan Henric Buettner: Why a $10B Founder Came Back to Build a Chess Startup at 60 | DSH #1640

I don't think I would have had the same work ethic, not even close, if I inherited money.

Jan Henric Buettner: Why a $10B Founder Came Back to Build a Chess Startup at 60 | DSH #1640

Exactly, yeah.

How has your relationship with money changed as you've gotten older?

Digital Social Hour
Jan Henric Buettner: Why a $10B Founder Came Back to Build a Chess Startup at 60 | DSH #1640

It's a very good question.

Digital Social Hour
Jan Henric Buettner: Why a $10B Founder Came Back to Build a Chess Startup at 60 | DSH #1640

It has never really changed in terms of being older and also I was asked about, because when I started to deal with very rich people when I did venture capital, I take from billionaires and from a lot of people.

Jan Henric Buettner: Why a $10B Founder Came Back to Build a Chess Startup at 60 | DSH #1640

So how are rich people with money and without money?

Digital Social Hour
Jan Henric Buettner: Why a $10B Founder Came Back to Build a Chess Startup at 60 | DSH #1640

And I said it's very easy.

Digital Social Hour
Jan Henric Buettner: Why a $10B Founder Came Back to Build a Chess Startup at 60 | DSH #1640

If you have a friendly person and he's rich, he's a rich friendly person.

If you have an asshole and he's rich, he's a rich asshole.
