    One False Move For years, investing legend DAVID BONDERMAN could do no wrong. And then he tried to buy a utility from Enron. By NICHOLAS VARCHAVER April 4, 2005 (FORTUNE Magazine) – THEY'RE THE KINGS of American business these days. Private equity firms, hedge funds, and their cash-laden ilk have been pulling the levers of capitalism, with investors you've never heard of amassing billions and buying corporate icons like Sears. Among this extremely quiet species, David Bonderman is as dominant as they come. He has earned a reputation as a master dealmaker, a tornado of a man spinning equal parts brilliance, energy, and charm inside his ever-moving vortex. His private equity partnership, Texas Pacific Group, has massive throw-weight. The firm says it has $20 billion under management--a gaudy sum that includes a series of under-the-radar Texas Pacific affiliates in the U.S. and Asia. That war chest puts the firm in the top tier of buyout funds and dwarfs those of raiders like Carl Icahn or even hedge fund upstarts like Eddie Lampert. Just in the U.S., Texas Pacific controls companies with annual revenues of $35 billion. If it were a public company, it would rank at No. 51 on the FORTUNE 500, somewhere between Motorola and Lockheed Martin. Like any private equity firm, Texas Pacific, which is based in Fort Worth and San Francisco, gathers cash from pension funds and wealthy investors and uses it to buy control of companies. What sets it apart from its peers is its reputation for taking on risky, unfixable companies--and then devoting serious resources to fixing them.

  • 56 Billionaires in Texas See Net Worth Jump $24 Billion Or 10.1% in First Three Months of COVID-19 Pandemic
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: July 1, 2020 56 Billionaires in Texas See Net Worth Jump $24 Billion or 10.1% in First Three Months of COVID-19 Pandemic Meanwhile State & Local Government Services Face Deep Cuts as Congress Stalls on New COVID-19 Financial Aid Package WASHINGTON—Texas has 56 billionaires who collectively saw their wealth increase by $24 billion or 10.1% during the first three months of the COVID-19 pandemic even as the state’s economy was reeling from a huge spike in joblessness and a collapse in taxes collected, a new report by Americans for Tax Fairness (ATF) and the Institute for Policy Studies (IPS). Three additional newly-minted billionaires joined the exclusive Texas club during the same period. Between March 18—the rough start date of the pandemic shutdown, when most federal and state economic restrictions were in place—and June 17, the total net worth of the state’s 56 billionaires rose from $238.9 billion to $276.3 billion, based on an analysis of Forbes data. Forbes’ annual billionaires report was published March 18, 2020, and the most recent real-time data was collected June 17 from the Forbes website. Fourteen Texas billionaires, including Michael Dell and Richard Kinder, saw their wealth grow by more than 25% during the pandemic period. Over roughly the same time, 2,400,000 of the state’s residents lost their jobs, 96,000 fell ill with the virus and 2,000 died from it. ​ ​ ​ ​ TEXAS BILLIONAIRES MARCH 18 TO JUNE 17, 2020 March 18 June 17 Real Wealth % Growth Net Worth Time Worth Growth in in 3 Primary Income Name (Millions) (Millions) 3 Months Months Source Industry Alice Walton $54,400 $53,307 -$1,093 -2.0% Walmart Fashion & Retail Michael Dell $22,900 $30,090 $7,190 31.4% Dell computers Technology Stanley Kroenke $10,000 $10,040 $40 0.4% sports, real estate Sports Jerry Jones $8,000 $8,060 $60 0.8% Dallas Cowboys Sports Andrew Beal $7,900 $8,798 $898 11.4% banks, real estate Finance & Investments Ann Walton Kroenke $7,900 $7,770 -$130 -1.6% Walmart Fashion & Retail Richard Kinder $5,200 $6,646 $1,446 27.8% pipelines Energy Robert F.

  • Forbes Billionaires: Full List of the Richest Americans
    http://onforb.es/OSzW9a Abram Brown Forbes Staff I write about people who build businesses. LISTS 3/03/2014 @ 6:57AM Forbes Billionaires: Full List Of The Richest Americans Comment Now Folksy and infinitely quotable, Warren Buffett is the Mark Twain of billionaires. He has warned about the temptations of buying fair things at wonderful prices rather than wonderful things at fair prices, and then in almost the very next breath, laid out the two rules for winning–the first being not to lose and the second being not to forget the first rule. Easier said than done, perhaps, but Buffett has proven himself capable of practicing what he preaches. Such restraint has made him immensely successful. A fact that hasn’t escaped his attention either. “I always knew I was going to be rich,” he once said. “I don’t think I ever doubted it for a minute.” We haven’t had much reason to doubt it either. Buffett is the second richest American and the fourth richest person in the world billionaire’s list at $58.2 billion, down slightly from last September when we sharpened our pencils and calculated his fortune at $58.5 million. He’s been a fixture at the Top 5 for the past two decades and has appeared on every one of our 28 billionaires issues. Buffett’s pal Bill Gates is not only the wealthiest American but the wealthiest in the world. He’s No. 1 with $76 billion. While Buffett slipped, Gates is up–by $4 billion. Following closely behind Gates and Buffett in America: Larry Ellison ($48 billion), Charles and David Koch ($40 billion a piece), Sheldon Adelson ($38 billion) and the Walton clan (Christy, $36.7 billion, Jim, $34.7 billion, and Alice $34.3).

  • FOR the 99.5% ACT Summary of Sen. Bernie Sanders' Legislation To
    FOR THE 99.5% ACT Summary of Sen. Bernie Sanders’ legislation to tax the fortunes of the top 0.5% The most important economic reality of our time is that over the past 40 years, there has been an enormous transfer of wealth from the middle class to the wealthiest people in America. In America today, the top one-tenth of one percent owns almost as much wealth as the bottom 90 percent. The 50 wealthiest people in this country own more wealth than the bottom half of Americans — 165 million people. Since 1985, the bottom 90% of Americans have seen their share of our nation’s wealth plummet from 34% to just 24% in 2019, according to the most recent data. While low-income workers at Walmart are forced to rely on food stamps, Medicaid and public housing to survive, the Walton family is now worth over $220 billion. More than a century ago, Republican President Theodore Roosevelt fought for the creation of a progressive estate tax to reduce the enormous concentration of wealth that existed during the Gilded Age. As Teddy Roosevelt said, "The absence of effective state, and, especially, national restraint upon unfair money-getting has tended to create a small class of enormously wealthy and economically powerful men, whose chief object is to hold and increase their power. The prime need is to change the conditions which enable these men to accumulate power … Therefore, I believe in a … graduated inheritance tax on big fortunes, properly safeguarded against evasion and increasing rapidly in amount with the size of the estate." While Roosevelt spoke those words on August 31, 1910, they are even more relevant today.
