• T. Boone Pickens, the legendary Texas oilman, passed away yesterday at age 91.
The Dallas Morning News, which published a 22-page obituary for Pickens, notes that he “wasn't a billionaire when he died, with his last reported net worth standing at a mere $500 million. That's because he'd given away more than $1 billion to philanthropic and educational causes.”
