Icahn was / is a successful corporate raider back in the 70s / 80s.  Worth about $16b according to recent reports.  Has been a hedge fund player for years and still serves on the BOD of many publicly traded companies.  Recently met his ex-first wife, totally by accident, when visiting one of our sons in Colorado.  She divorced him in the 90's and is reported to only be receiving $1.5m / yr in a settlement.  Had two of his kids.  Interesting link to story of one of his recent corporate raids:
