Let's make this birthday one to remember.

91 years old (Born on December 20, 1933)

Happy Birthday, Gordon Peter Getty! You certainly struck oil—literally and figuratively—in 1983 when you made headlines selling Getty Oil to Texaco for a cool $10 billion. That same year, being crowned America's richest person with a tidy sum of $2 billion must have felt like winning the ultimate Monopoly game!

But beyond your legendary business savvy lies an even richer legacy: philanthropy that has touched countless lives. Your generosity continues to inspire us all—and proves once again that while money talks, kindness sings opera (and we know how much you love music!). Here's wishing you another fantastic year filled with laughter, joy, and perhaps fewer zeros—but only on birthday candles!
