Forbes 400

Post by MrMustang1965 »

Any SMU alumni on this list?

For Forbes Magazine’s annual list of the 400 richest Americans, which was released Thursday, you needed to have a minimum net worth of $1.3 Billion. That’s right, if you had $1.2 Billion you didn’t make the cut!

How did Robert Rowling make his $$? What industries?
BRING BACK THE GLORY DAYS OF SMU FOOTBALL!!!

For some strange reason, one of the few universities that REFUSE to use their school colors: Harvard Crimson & Yale Blue.
