Jay Gould
Jason "Jay" Gould (May 27, 1836 – December 2, 1892) was a leading American railroad developer and speculator. He was long vilified as an archetypal robber baron,〔Scranton, Philip. ("Fine Line Between Thief and Entrepreneur" ), teachinghistory.org; accessed May 3, 2014.〕 whose success at business made him the ninth richest U.S. citizen in history,〔In (Richest Americans ), ''Fortune Magazine'', with an estimated wealth at death of $77,000,000 Gould's Wealth/GDP ratio equalled 1/185.〕 although some modern historians working from primary sources have discounted his portrayal by the contemporary press. Condé Nast Portfolio ranked Gould as the 8th worst American CEO of all time.〔Portfolio.com staff (30 April 2009). (Portfolio's Worst American CEOs of All Time. ) CNBC〕
