However, some successful business leaders choose to live very simple lives. Another similar example is Ramamurthy Thyagarajan, the founder of the Shriram Group. Even though Ramamurthy Thyagarajan is a billionaire, he lives a very simple life. He drives a simple car that costs only Rs 6 lakh and has donated crores of rupees to many social causes. Thyagarajan once sold his stake in a company worth USD 750 million (Rs 6210 crore) and donated the entire amount to a trust.
