David Rubenstein
David Rubenstein is the co-founder of The Carlyle Group and a prominent philanthropist and interviewer.
“Him and a couple friends organized roughly $2 billion in transacting these tax losses. And after doing that for two or three years, they had made something like $20 million. And that's the money that they used three years later to eventually start Carlyle Group, which is now one of the largest PE firms in the world. I believe they have $500 billion in companies that they own.”
