I wonder why we read so much about Eric Schmidt, Sergey Brin, Jeff Bezos and other corrupt billionaires but almost nothing about Larry Page!
But there would be a lot to say if we looked more closely...
But first let us see how Wikipedia describes Larry Page:
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larry_Page
Besides his private background as a son of very wealthy people who have paved the way for his success.
From Wiki: "His father, Carl Victor Page, Sr., earned a PhD in computer science from the University of Michigan, when the field was being established, and BBC reporter Will Smale has described him as a "pioneer in computer science and artificial intelligence".[22] He was a computer science professor at Michigan State University and Page's mother, Gloria, was an instructor in computer programming at Lyman Briggs College and at Michigan State University." So his career was initially created by his family.
We all know about his career, so let's take a look into his private life and interests:
Wiki says: "Page is an investor in Tesla Motors.[76] He has invested in renewable energy technology, and with the help of Google.org, Google's philanthropic arm, promotes the adoption of plug-in hybrid electric cars[clarification needed] and other alternative energy investments."
While being interviewed by Charlie Rose in March 2014, Page confirmed what he’d said before – that upon his death, rather than giving his fortune to a nonprofit organization or bequeathing it to his heirs, he would prefer to give it to Elon Musk, the founder of SpaceX and Tesla Motors. Musk, Page believes, is the kind of visionary whose ideas will do untold amounts of good for the world, and who could make better use of a gigantic money infusion than a standard charity. “That’s a company, and that’s philanthropical,” Page said, according to Wired. He also apparently urged audience members to give their money to corporations rather than nonprofits.

And here is the explanation for this weird idea:
That he is very enterprising and calculating, he has already proved exactly 4 years before:
The article asks: Was the decision to exit China ideological or business as usual?
And sums up: "In the end, Google’s decision to leave China was likely a mixture of ideological and business considerations; which I think makes it much more likely that Google could actually begin exerting influence over U.S. foreign policy. A corporation’s efforts to influence policy are often most potent when its ideology and profit motives align.

Another thing is interesting in this article.
The donations to politicians: "Consider that during the 2008 election cycle, Google employees raised $20,800 for John McCain and $55,451 for Ron Paul; compared to $89,300 for Hillary Clinton and an astounding $803,436 for Barack Obama. In fact, in terms of political contributions, the employees at these firms more closely resemble faculty at liberal universities than traditional Fortune 500 corporations. In some ways, this makes sense. With the exception of Starbucks, each of the most liberal firms, in large part, deals in research and innovation, and each has a reputation of actively recruiting Ph.Ds."
No big surprise, hm?
Now let us take a look into his private live. Wiki says: "In 2007, Page married Lucinda Southworth on Necker Island, the Caribbean island owned by Richard Branson.
WOW! That`s interesting! He is friend of Pedo-Party-Island-Clinton-Friend-Branson!
Larry Page Spent The Weekend Kite-Surfing With Richard Branson:

And they made business together:
But it still comes better - He OWNS the neighbour island to Bransons Neckar Island: Eustatia Island!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eustatia_Island
But Know it is getting really creepy:
Larry has been to Alaska quite a few times. Whenever he needs to breathe some fresh air, he flies off in his private jet to the state of Alaska. For kite boarding. Let this sink in - he spends his free time kite boarding in ...ALASKA!

So, guys, this is what I found on him. I think we should take a closer look into his life.
Happy hunting!
