Keanu Reeves rarely talks about money. I scoured the internet trolling through many interviews and videos of him trying to find a comment from him about money.

Why? He has famously given away much of his money to an unnamed Leukemia Foundation and the cast and crew of movies he has appeared in without keeping a lot for himself to buy nice stuff or flaunt his success.

One of the most successful Hollywood actors of all-time doesn’t focus on money. There has to be something in that. There has to be a reason.

Finally, after hours of searching, an interview with Keanu back in 2006 shared his views on money:

“Money doesn’t mean anything to me. I’ve made a lot of money, but I want to enjoy life and not stress myself building my bank account.

I give lots away and live simply, mostly out of a suitcase in hotels. We all know that good health is more important.”

Money adds stress

“Building your bank account,” as Keanu puts it, is stressful.
