Jannie Mouton: "Warren Buffett's smile inspired me to give away my billions"

PSG's founder Jannie Mouton has started giving away the billions in personal wealth he has accumulated - and it's all because of the example of a man who lives on the other side of the world. In this inspirational interview, Mouton emphasises the "outlier" qualities behind his own company and its creations Capitec and Curro, when explaining it watching Berkshire Hathaway chairman Warren Buffett on television which sparked his own decision. Buffett, he said, "had a big smile on his face" when the interviewer asked him about the decision to give 99% of his wealth to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. PSG's founder says as there no nothing similar to that charitable trust in his native South Africa, his money will go into the Jannie Mouton Foundation - and will be invested in helping his own people and primarily in education. An extraordinary entrepreneur who is bequeathing an extraordinary legacy. - Alec Hogg Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
