His reputation as a playboy, superyachts, collection of fighter jets that he pilots himself, Armani black suits, or the island he bought in Hawaii mark some of the chapters of his biography.

Larry grew up in a middle-class neighborhood in Chicago. He had a complicated adolescence. In fact, he dropped out of college without completing any degree.

At the age of 20, he moved to California, where he started working in emerging technology companies and was assigned to a project named Oracle that was tasked with developing a massive database for the CIA. This experience led him to establish his vast empire, 'Oracle Corporation.'
