Michael Dell is the sixth-richest man in the world with a net worth of about $232 billion. He and his wife, Susan, have given away about $10 billion of that fortune—and she is calling a lot of the shots on where the money goes.
She is the co-founder and chair of the Michael & Susan Dell Foundation, established in 1999. The organization currently manages more than 800 projects worldwide each year, particularly in the U.S., Africa, India, Israel, and their home state of Texas, where they live on a sprawling 33,000-square-foot estate.
