Description


J. Paul Getty

Jean Paul Getty (December 15, 1892 – June 6, 1976) was an Anglo-American industrialist. He founded the Getty Oil Company, and in 1957 Fortune magazine named him the richest living American,[3] whilst the 1966 Guinness Book of Records named him as the world's richest private citizen, worth an estimated $1.2 billion.[4] At his death, he was worth more than $2 billion.[5] A book published in 1996 ranked him as the 67th richest American who ever lived, based on his wealth as a percentage of the gross national product.[6] Despite his wealth, Getty was known for being a miser.
