Wise co-founder Kristo Käärmann said despite everything the company has achieved he lives a fairly ordinary life.

Talking to “Ringvaade” in a rare interview, Käärman, 45, who lives in London with his wife and two small children, said that he even now looks out for discount prices in stores.

“When we had children, we stopped making English breakfasts and instead eat oatmeal porridge in the mornings,” he added.

“I have a six-year-old and a three-year-old son. In the mornings, they need to be taken to kindergarten, which is a very nice activity. London has very good transport connections; you can hop on a train and head out of the city. We go hiking with the children, swimming, and cycling,” he continued.

“I try to spend my free time at home and do something fun with the kids. The good thing is that when we have 8,000 employees, the work gets done even without me. When needed, I can take a vacation and spend time with my family,” he added.
