SoftBank's Vision Fund has already committed $65B; Masayoshi Son says that he plans to raise a new $100B fund every two or three years and spend ~$50B per year

Masayoshi Son http://www.bloomberg.com/... Sarah G McBride / @mcbridesg : Ask SoftBank billionaire Masa re his $117mn house and he will parry w/ his Uniqlo attire. W @Selina_y_wang @pelstrom http://www.bloomberg.com/... Selina Wang / @selina_y_wang : We sat down for a rare interview w/ Masa Son in Tokyo for our @BW magazine feature on his $100 billion Vision Fund. He plans to invest ~$50 billion/yr, always wears Uniqlo, has been in an Uber only once,& has not chosen a successor yet @mcbridesg @pelstrom http://www.bloomberg.com/... Peter Elstrom / @pelstrom : So much we couldn't squeeze into this story, including when Son echoes his friend Steve Jobs: “I am a little crazy. I want to stay crazy.” https://www.bloomberg.com/... via @BW tip @Techmeme Teddy Schleifer / @teddyschleifer : When Masa's key lieutenant, Rajeev Misra, pitched the Vision Fund to him, it was only supposed to be $30 billion. http://www.bloomberg.com/... Thanks: @pelstrom
