About Me

A lucky guy, he grossed $7 billion on 7 deals in 7 years. His new house on Dallas Country Club is appraised by the county at $40 million. Southern Methodist University has broken ground on Rees-Jones LIbrary of the American West, to hold his $100 million collection of 30,000 books, maps, artworks. Set to open in 2027.
