I like Icahn.. a lot. I may be infatuated. I even respect him for who he (unabashedly) is. But I couldn't actually look up to him as a role model.

I guess it depends on the parameters (living or not, profession, etc). Assuming we're talking about high finance professionals, the first that come to mind...

Lloyd "El Duende" Blankfein Cary Cohn aka Todd Packer James "Jimmy Dean" Dimon and of course his daddy, Sanford "Sandy" Weill Steven Schwarzman Larry Fink (or Jim Chanos, sometimes it is hard to tell them apart) George Soros Carl Icahn Kenneth Feinberg Thomas Montag Michael Cavanagh aka Kenneth Parcell

Jim Chanos is a great one too, forgot to mention him. Other than their political affiliations I'm not sure what him and Larry Fink have in common as far as being investors go unless there's something I totally don't know about Fink... with the disclaimer I don't know him at all other than the very basic info everyone else would know.

 

I admired Henry Paulson's reputation and his conservative nature (AND his fucked up pinky finger), this is coming from a soon-to-be accountant still in school, so take it with a grain of salt. However, I think he is an idiot for subscribing to "Christian science" and relying on prayer to fix his ailments. It's only a matter of time before he gets a serious illness and finds out that god won't save him.
