 Little gets in the way of Larry Ellison's ambition--or mouth. In an August TV ¬interview, the Oracle founder said that Apple's best days are behind it after the passing of close friend Steve Jobs and that Google's alleged infringement on Oracle's patents in its Android software was "absolutely evil." In late September his Team Oracle pulled off a stunning comeback from a seven-race deficit to win its second consecutive America's Cup sailing trophy. Ellison collects houses on Malibu's Carbon Beach and also owns of 98% of Hawaii's Lanai island. In his quest for youth he has donated $445 million to his medical foundation to support research on aging and age-related diseases.
