3. Larry Ellison拉里•埃里森
Larry Ellison is in the third place. It is estimated that he owns more than $53 billion. Larry was born in Bronx and was raised by a single mother. Later on the boy was sent to Chicago where he was brought up by his uncle and aunt. This is where he learned the basics of computer programming. Larry, however, did not finish his studies and eventually dropped out of school. In order to make money, Ellison worked various jobs in California.
拉里•埃里森排在第三位。据估计,他拥有超过530亿美金的资产。拉里出生在布朗克斯,并身在一个单亲家庭。后来这个男孩被送到芝加哥,在那里由他叔叔和婶婶抚养。他在那里学会了计算机编程的基础知识。但是拉里最终还是没能完成自己的研究并且辍学了。为了要赚更多的钱,拉里在加利福尼亚州做过各种各样的工作。
It all started in 1977, when Larry together with several other coworkers decided to establish their own business. The team launched a relational database management system called Oracle. The company’s sales kept growing, which helped the creators become popular. Right now Ellison’s plan is to step down as head of the team. Nevertheless, he will still be involved with the business related to Oracle’s technology development.
