Michael Dell
Michael Saul Dell (born February 23, 1965) is an American business magnate, investor, philanthropist, and author. He is the founder and CEO of Dell Inc., one of the world’s leading sellers of personal computers (PCs). He was ranked the 41st richest person in the world on 2012 Forbes list of billionaires, with a net worth of US$22.4 billion as of December 2014.〔
In 2011, his 243.35 million shares of Dell stock were worth $3.5 billion, giving him 12% ownership of the company. His remaining wealth of roughly $10 billion is invested in other companies and is managed by a firm whose name, MSD Capital, incorporates Dell's initials. On January 5, 2013 it was announced that Michael Dell had bid to take Dell Inc. private for $24.4 billion in the biggest management buyout since the Great Recession. Dell Inc. officially went private on October 29, 2013.
==Early life==
Michael Dell was born in 1965 in Houston, to a Jewish family whose surname reflects the translation into English of the original German/Yiddish ''Thal'' ("valley" or "dale ()"; modern common-noun spelling ''Tal'') upon the family's immigration to the United States.〔''Lone stars of David: the Jews of Texas'', By Hollace Ava Weiner, Kenneth Roseman, page 257, UPNE, 2007〕 The son of Lorraine Charlotte (née Langfan), a stockbroker,〔(Biography of Michael Dell. ) businessweek.com (From The Associated Press; 2007-01-31).〕 and Alexander Dell, an orthodontist, Michael Dell attended Herod Elementary School in Houston.〔(History of Our School ). Es.houstonisd.org. Retrieved on 2012-07-12.〕 In a bid to enter business early, he applied to take a high school equivalency exam at age eight. In his early teens, he invested his earnings from part-time jobs in stocks and precious metals.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.achievement.org/autodoc/printmember/del0bio-1 )〕
Dell purchased his first calculator at age seven and encountered an early teletype terminal in junior high. At age 15, after playing with computers at Radio Shack, he got his first computer, an Apple II, which he promptly disassembled to see how it worked. Dell attended Memorial High School in Houston, selling subscriptions to the ''Houston Post'' in the summer. While making cold calls, he noted that the persons most likely to purchase subscriptions were those in the process of establishing permanent geographic and social presence; he then targeted this demographic group by collecting names from marriage and mortgage applications. Dell earned $18,000 that year, exceeding the annual income of his history and economics teacher.
