It's not about family or whatever, it's a guy doing what he deems best at an early point in his life. He can always take lesser money later in his life when he's older, but a full $10M on the table is a lot to leave. Leaving $1M is admirable but anything more is pretty crazy.

And it’s probably not 10M at the end either. The biggest chunk is going to come in the first 5 years (I bet half of that extra 10 comes in the first 2 or 3 years).
