He's currently CEO of Zscaler, the cloud security company he founded in 2007, which is valued at $28.56 billion as of Monday morning. "I think it's to make a difference in the world," Chaudhry tells CNBC Make It. Growing up in a farming village in rural India, Chaudhry says he "never had money in my early childhood." In his youth, his idea of success never even hinted at the prospect of launching a business, much less one worth tens of billions of dollars. He had a good job with financial security, yet he couldn't help but think: "There may be an opportunity to make a big difference'" if more companies got on the internet, he says.

☆ Promised Cures, Tainted Cells: How Cord Blood Banks Mislead Parents

Millions of pregnant women get the pitch through their OB-GYN: Put a bit of your newborn’s umbilical cord on ice, as a biological insurance policy. If your child one day faces cancer, diabetes or even autism, the precious stem cells in the cord blood could become a tailor-made cure. More than two million umbilical cord samples sit in a handful of suburban warehouses across the country. Doctors rarely use cord blood anymore, thanks to advances that have made it easier to transplant adult stem cells. And the few parents who try to withdraw cord blood samples often find that they are unusable — either because their volume is too low or they have been contaminated with microbes.

The paintings had been at the center of a gender battle that broke out after a man from the Australian state of New South Wales took legal action against the gallery after being refused entry to the museum's "Ladies Lounge" exhibition. The exhibition contained some of the museum's most notable artworks, including some said to have been produced by the Spanish Cubist Pablo Picasso. "I knew of a number of Picasso paintings I could borrow from friends, but none of them were green and I wished for the Lounge to be monochrome. The forgery prompted a reevaluation of other works displayed in the Ladies Lounge, and Kaechele revealed that some other items were also not genuine.

If Mr. Trump has these qualities, Americans have never seen them in action on behalf of the nation’s interests. This record shows what can happen to a country led by such a person: America’s image, credibility and cohesion were relentlessly undermined by Mr. Trump during his term. Mr. Trump has shown, repeatedly, that he does not. The lack of moral grounding undermines Mr. Trump even in areas where voters view him as stronger and trust him more than Mr. Biden, like immigration and crime. But there are good reasons to worry about whether that would happen again, as Mr. Trump works harder to surround himself with people who enable rather than check his most insidious impulses.
