A person in the top 10 wealthiest people in the world wakeboards...do you know who it is?

Here's a quote from him.

"I think about the business all the time. Well, I shouldn't say all the time. I don't think about it when I'm wakeboarding. But even when I'm on vacation, or on my boat, I'm on e-mail every day. I'm always prowling around the Internet looking at what our competitors are doing."

It's kind of embarrassing to admit, but I fell out of the top ten this year. I'm now at #12. The economy has hit everyone hard!

I couldn't find Mr. Williams on the wealthiest people list, although he was #1 on the best job in the world list...

Yea...Larry Ellison. I'm sure is 452ft yacht throws a big wake.

He obviously hasn't read the thread about this.

Maybe he needs a new boat driver. I am pretty sure it would not be minimum wage. He should call me!
