The 38 year old serial entrepreneur dropped out of UCLA and co-founded companies like Scour Inc. and peer-to-peer file-sharing platform Red Swoosh before teaming up with Garrett Camp to start the famous ride-sharing service Uber in 2009.

The company was recently valued at $18.2 billion and though his share in Uber is not known, but he needs to own 5.49% of the company to join the billionaires’ club.

But despite his billion plus net-worth, Travis uses his Uber’s ride-on-demand service to get around.
