Larry Ellison

Larry Ellison is the chairman, chief technology officer, and co-founder of Oracle, which he controls around 35% of. After 37 years as CEO of Oracle, he stepped down in 2014. Oracle has developed in part by making continuous software acquisitions, the most recent of which was $9.3 billion for NetSuite in 2016. In 2020, Ellison will make his permanent home on the Hawaiian island of Lanai, which he purchased nearly whole for $300 million in 2012. After purchasing 3 million Tesla shares earlier that year, Ellison joined Tesla's board of directors in December 2018.

A Hawaiian island was purchased for $600 million by the businessman. He currently owns 98 percent of Lanai, Hawaii's largest island. He is thought to have defeated Bill Gates for the honor.
