Background

Parsons was born in Baltimore, Maryland. His family lived in Highlandtown and struggled financially as both of his parents were hard-core gamblers. His mother was a homemaker while his father worked as a furniture salesman for Montgomery Ward.[11] Parsons has said about those days, "I've earned everything I've ever received. Very little was given to me. I've been working as long as I can remember. Whether it was delivering or selling newspapers, pumping gas, working in construction or in a factory, I've always been making my own money."[12]

After nearly flunking out of high school, Parsons enlisted in the United States Marine Corps.[13][14] He was assigned to the 26th Marine Regiment, which was attached to and operated as part of the 1st Marine Division. In 1969, he served as a rifleman in the Delta Company of the 1st Battalion, 26th Marines, during a tour of duty in Vietnam, in the Quảng Nam Province.[15]

He was wounded in action, medically evacuated, and spent two months at a naval hospital recovering from his wounds. As a result of his service and injury, he earned the Combat Action Ribbon, the Vietnam Gallantry Cross, and the Purple Heart.[16]

Education

In 1975, Parsons obtained an accounting degree from the University of Baltimore, graduating magna cum laude.[17] He then began his career in IT and software sales industry[18]

The University of Baltimore conferred an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degree on May 21, 2008.[19]

Parsons Technology

In 1984, he founded Parsons Technology in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and began selling MoneyCounts, a home accounting program. In late 1987, Parsons was able to quit his job and focus completely on selling and overseeing growth of MoneyCounts. Eventually, Parsons Technology grew to be a 1,000-employee, privately held company. On September 27, 1994, Parsons completed the sale of Parsons Technology to Intuit, Inc. for $64 million.[20]

GoDaddy

The Bob & Renee Parsons Foundation

In 2012, Bob and Renee Parsons established the Bob and Renee Parsons Foundation. Since then, the Foundation has awarded to more than 96 charities and organizations worldwide. A third of the total money awarded has been spent in local Arizonian charities.[47] Bob Parsons was said to have resigned his position as executive chairman at GoDaddy in order to devote more time to his other interests, among them his foundation,[48] while Renee Parsons manages the foundation on a day-to-day basis.[64]

They have joined Bill and Melinda Gates and Warren Buffett's The Giving Pledge in 2010 and agreed to donate half their wealth to charity.[47] Since its inception, The foundation has donated over $10 million on a yearly basis, placing it among the state's 10 biggest givers.[49]

The foundation receives funding requests from charities through its Web site, and subsequently evaluates them and makes donations based on the requesting charities needs.[49] Its main focus areas can be categorized in disaster relief, veterans, and the Phoenix community. After the 2010 Haiti earthquake, The foundation pledged $500 thousand for Hope for Haiti and a further $4 million towards relief efforts.[50] The Bob and Renee Parsons Foundation has supported several veterans' organizations, mainly the Semper Fi Fund, with donations exceeding $8.5 million, mostly in the form of matching donations.[51][52][53] In or around Phoenix, Arizona, it has donated more than $8 million to United Methodist Outreach Centers (UMOM) and its New Day Centers, which the organization spent in part to pay off the mortgage for one of its biggest facilities. It has also donated at least $10 million to the Southwest Center for HIV/AIDS, helping it open its new center.[49][54]

Other projects the foundation was involved with include the W. M. Keck Observatory in Hawaii, which amounted to three grants totaling $3.7 million to upgrade its laser system;[55] the Girl Scouts through the Girl Scouts Beyond Bars program;[56] $4 million in scholarship funds for theDream.us;[57] a $1.5 million grant to the Phoenix Children's Hospital in support of one of its community outreach programs;[58] $1 million towards the Barrow Neurological Institute at St. Joseph's Hospital and Medical Center;[59] $1.4 million for the Murphy Kids Dental Clinic;[60] and $2 million to Circle the City, in order for the organization to launch a new primary healthcare center.[61]

Political activities

In 2012, Parsons donated $1 million to Restore Our Future, Mitt Romney's Super PAC.[62]

On December 8, 2016, Parsons donated $1 million to 58th Presidential Inaugural Committee.

[63]

In the January 9, 2017 episode (around the 45:00 mark) of The Forward Podcast with Lance Armstrong, Parsons proudly proclaimed "I'm a Deplorable!" and stated that Donald Trump had been his early choice among the 17 major candidates in the 2016 Republican Primary. "[Trump] was the guy that always resonated with me. [...] Everything so far he said he'd do he's done, which is almost unheard of in politics, he gets no credit for it! [...] I think when everything is all said and done, he's gonna be one of the best presidents we've ever had." He also mentioned he had never voted for Obama.[64]

Controversies

In 2011, Parsons was denounced by animal rights and other groups for trophy hunting after he tweeted a video in which he shoots and kills an elephant in Zimbabwe. Parsons responded that the criticism was misinformed, asserting that elephants are not endangered and that the animals he hunted were considered a nuisance by locals.[65]

GoDaddy was criticized as sexist for advertising practices between its first Super Bowl ad in 2005 through the company's IPO in 2014.[66] "The Go Daddy girl was my idea," Parsons said. "I told the ad agency, I want a really well-endowed, good-looking gal in a tight T-shirt, with our name right across her breasts."[67] He used his blog to draw attention to ads that were rejected from television as too racy.[68]
