Alright, so the other day I got curious about Colin Angle, you know, the iRobot guy. The name popped up and I thought, I wonder what his net worth is looking like these days. Happens sometimes, you hear about these tech founders and just get a bit nosy about the numbers.
So, what did I do? First thing, fired up my laptop. Went straight to my usual search engine. Nothing fancy, just typed in “Colin Angle net worth”. Simple as that.
The Search Begins
Hit enter and boom, pages of results. You know how it is. A bunch of those celebrity net worth sites popped up right away. Clicked on the first couple that looked kinda credible, or at least, the ones I recognized.
- First site: Gave a number. Okay, noted it down mentally.
- Second site: Showed a different number. Huh, okay.
- Third site: Another different figure, maybe closer to the first one, maybe not.
It quickly became clear this wasn’t going to be a straightforward answer. These sites, they all pull data from different places, I guess. Public filings, stock holdings estimations, maybe some educated guessing, who knows?
Digging a Bit Deeper (or trying to)
I started looking for maybe news articles or more official sources. Thought maybe Forbes or Bloomberg might have something concrete. Scrolled through search results, looking past the usual quick-answer sites.
Found some articles talking about iRobot’s stock performance, Angle’s role, his compensation sometimes mentioned in reports, but pinning down a total net worth figure? Tough luck. It’s not like these guys have a public scoreboard showing their exact bank balance.
What I Realized
Most of these online net worth numbers are just estimates. They fluctuate like crazy, especially for people whose wealth is tied up in company stock. One good quarter for the company, the estimate jumps. A bad market day, it drops. It’s all very fluid.
You see things like:
- Estimated stock value
- Reported salary/bonuses (if public)
- Maybe some guesses about other investments
But putting it all together into one reliable number? Seems like a bit of a guessing game for most online sources. They often don’t agree, and the figures can be outdated pretty quickly.
So, after maybe 15-20 minutes of clicking around, I basically found a range of estimates. No single, solid number jumped out as the definitive one. It’s just the nature of trying to find this kind of info online, I suppose. You get a ballpark figure, maybe, but you gotta take it with a grain of salt. That was my little adventure trying to figure out Colin Angle’s net worth – more of a dive into estimation-land than finding a hard fact.
