Unable to buy Alaska which has been put on the market by the USA Government, Larry Ellison of Oracle has decided to buy a huge chunk of Hawaii. Mr Ellison has a fantastic house in Hawaii and he is just sick of the tourists that come to all parts of Hawaii and crowd the best beaches. Mr Ellison does not wish to disrupt the Waikiki Beach because he never goes there. It is just too offensive and crowded and is not worth buying.
One of the islands Mr Ellison has bought is the island of Lanai. With just about 3,000 residents living on its 141 square miles of pristine beaches, red dirt roads, and largely undeveloped land, the island of Lanai feels like a small town. It doesn’t even have a traffic light. Larry Ellison bought 98 percent of the Lanai. The residents of the island were left wondering what Ellison plans for their community. It is a sleepy island steeped in tradition and studded with native Hawaiian heritage sites. May be Ellison wants to be the king of the island!
Ellison reportedly owns a home on the island, but he has never met anyone who lives on the island. In fact the residents had never heard of him. As soon as they heard about him they googled his name and learned who he was.
