Calvin Ayre, a prominent entrepreneur hailing from Canada, is estimated to have a net worth of $1.2 billion by 2024. Known for his successful business ventures and astute investments, Ayre has made a name for himself in various industries. As the founder of the Bodog Entertainment Group, he revolutionized the online gambling industry and achieved remarkable success. Besides his ventures in gaming, Ayre has also ventured into technology, cryptocurrency, and philanthropy, further enhancing his reputation as a versatile and influential entrepreneur. With his sharp business acumen and relentless drive, Calvin Ayre has amassed considerable wealth over the years and continues to contribute to the Canadian business landscape.
He has had success both through online poker company Bodog and various other ventures. Bodog was initially formed as a software development firm but Ayre quickly saw the possibilities of using the site as an online gaming destination. As online poker's popularity grew and grew, so did Ayre's wealth. In 2006 he was included in the "Billionaire" edition of Forbes magazine. Ayre became involved in some legal troubles stemming from the allegedly illegal movement of funds outside the United States and his promotion of online gambling.
As a result of this activity, he no longer handles day to day operations of Bodog and hasn't since 2008, choosing instead to focus on his charitable organization The Calvin Ayre Foundation. Founded in 2005, the foundation exists mainly as a way to channel funds to other charitable organizations instead of serving one specific charitable purpose. Some of the organizations to receive support in the form of money and man-hours from The Calvin Ayre Foundation are the Fisher House Foundation, the LA Lakers Youth Foundation, the Humane Society, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, the Animal Avengers Organization, and the Sean McCauley Hope Foundation for Pediatric Cancer.
