- Here’s a look at his background, career, and how he spends his fortune.
Michael Dell, the tech entrepreneur who helped bring the personal computer to the masses, ranks among the world’s wealthiest people with a net worth of $122 billion, per the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.
From his early career as one of the youngest CEOs of a Fortune 500 company until now, Dell is used to getting his way. He was only 23 when his company had its IPO in 1988. Dell took the PC maker private in 2013 only to relist it five years later, and has now shifted the company’s focus toward serving the artificial intelligence boom.
Dell lives the extravagant life of a successful business figure as well, complete with all of the private planes, summer homes, and sweet rides you’d expect from a billionaire.
