No, since he is not affiliated with Turner anymore, he is listed as a FL Billionaire.


So how many of Florida's billionaires are just billionaires from elsewhere that relocated because they are old?

Not necessarily true. For people who are interested in the sport of finance, this list is the one and only "Power Rankings" list.

I've heard of Harbert Corporation but had no idea it was that profitable as a construction firm. Surprisingly she lives in Mountain Brook. Ha.

Well lots of people live and work for those peopel especially in Texas. I have run frac jobs for Hunt Oil, I root for the team that plays in Jerry Jones' Death Star, I shop at H.E.B, I have driven by Ross Perot's EDS plenty of times it's right off the Tollway, Mark Cuban is just a bamf and will respond to your emails, I love rooting for the failure of Robert McNair's team, I loved rooting for the failures of Drayton McLane as well, also Tom Hicks is a prick.

Ask Oregon and oklahoma state whether or not the two are related.

alabama right now is dominating. but we put our backs into it...we're going to outspend them and then build a better team and then rub their noses in it. This is Texas By God.

Well if topping this list guarantees a winning football program, there are some programs that need to get to work.

Over the next decade that will change. I know Conoco Phillips told us they would be drilling 175 wells in the Eagleford for the next 9 years at a minimum. Just loaded my 2013 allotment of my Roth IRA in to COP stock.



Still one of my favorite pictures.
