I'm a smart boy."Newsweek reached out to Donaldson's representative via email for comment.The exchange comes following criticism over Donaldson's comments comparing himself to a "zoo animal" on a recent podcast."It's very easy in moments like that to go, f***, I'm like a zoo animal. I don't have free will. I'm like a little robot to my businesses," the 26-year-old said on The Diary Of A CEO podcast, which was released on February 20. "And so you have to, like, be very careful. And sometimes those emotions take over, especially because I'm a very defiant guy."On Reddit, user Troepzooibende wrote in a comment with 2,800 upvotes: "He has 80 million [dollars], if he doesn't like working then, just... stop.""Rich people love to complain about how hard their lives are.. they're so disconnected [from] reality," ellsego added in a message with 1,200 upvotes.According to Forbes, Donaldson's net worth was estimated to be $500 million in 2022.
