What is Chris Pirillo's Net Worth?
Chris Pirillo is an American Internet entrepreneur who has a net worth of $3 Million. Born Christopher Joseph Pirillo on July 26, 1973, in Des Moines, Iowa, he is best recognized as the founder and CEO of LockerGnome, Inc, a network of blogs, Web forums, mailing lists and some other online communities. A geek, tech expert, hardware addict, software junkie, book author, TV show host, and technology enthusiast are some of the few roles Pirillo has taken over and successfully fulfilled on his way to prominence.
It was in 1996 that he set up LockerGnome.com, in an attempt to deliver personality-infused tech answers to his audience. Two years after the successful launch of the blogging network, with posts from many contributors offering technology tips, he tried his hand at writing. In 1998, he authored the trustworthy book on e-mail publishing, a feat that established him even further as a thought leader. Next, he moved from the middle of Iowa to San Francisco in 2001 to accomplish another professional exploit. He spent two years as a host who solved common technology frustrations on the TechTVtelevision interactive program Call for Help, where he also hosted the first annual Call-for-Help-a-Thon.
Today, not only he releases a new installment of TLDR every weekday, but he also finds time to release a daily installment of "Pirillo Vlogs". It is a 10-minute vlog, recording the day-to-day lives of Chris Pirillo and his wife Diana since April 23, 2012.
