Let's make this birthday one to remember.

88 years old (Born on March 06, 1937)

Happy Birthday, Ivan Boesky! While your insider trading days in the mid-1980s might not exactly qualify as Wall Street's finest hour, they certainly made you unforgettable. Who else could turn a financial scandal into a timeless lesson on ethics—and inspire Hollywood's Gordon Gekko along the way?

Though your methods were questionable at best, you've undeniably left an indelible mark on financial history. Here's hoping this birthday brings you plenty of cake—legally acquired, of course—and laughter that echoes louder than any courtroom gavel. Cheers to another year wiser and (hopefully) less controversial!
