Blueprint #05

$180B · Oracle (NYSE: ORCL), Lana'i Hawai'i, Tesla board stake

Larry Ellison

The Licensor

Wealth DNA

Software license royalties. Build it once, license it forever, charge maintenance every year. Recurring revenue with near-zero marginal cost.

Hidden Trick

Charitable Lead Annuity Trusts (CLATs) — give a fixed annuity to charity for a set number of years, remainder passes to heirs gift-tax-free. Ellison Medical Foundation runs this structure. Land acquisitions in opportunity zones for capital gains deferral.

Rance Playbook

Stop selling outright. License with a maintenance and upgrade tail. Convert the recurring stream into land and trust assets that the next generation owns.
