After 3 years of hard work, Greene went back to Harvard Business School where he received his Masters of Business Administration in 1979.

While at HBS, Greene began investing in residential real estate by purchasing a 3-family house in Somerville, not far from the business school, where he would reside while getting his MBA. He gained a quick understanding of the real estate business and by the time he completed his second year at HBS, he had accumulated 18 properties and a net worth of over a million dollars.

After business school, Greene moved to Los Angeles where he successfully navigated a roller coaster real estate market through the 80s and 90s.

I don’t believe in being attached to material possessions. The school has a need-blind admission policy and over 40% of the students receive financial aid, all funded by the Greene’s. Jewish causes are likely a priority of Greene’s, not only because of his Hebrew-school-teacher mother but because he himself was a Hebrew school teacher, one of the many jobs he took on while putting himself through school.

ARTS: Greene also appears to have some interest in art, with steady giving to the Perlman Music Program in New York.

Worried about the possible collapse of the real estate market, he devised a hedge for that portfolio in which he shorted what he determined were enormously overvalued subprime mortgage backed securities. Greene graduated from Johns Hopkins University.

BACKGROUND: Jeff Greene is the son of working-class parents from Worcester, Massachusetts.

Greene has given modest sums to other cultural and civic institutions in South and Central Florida, including the Everglades Foundation, and the Central Florida YMCA Foundation. Palm Beach Pride: We choose to raise our family here because we believe this is one of the best communities in the world.

His father ran a business selling used textile machinery and his mother was a religious school teacher. After Johns Hopkins, Greene worked on- the- road as a circus promoter for almost 3 years, accumulating the seed capital for what would become a multibillion-dollar real estate portfolio. For now, Greene’s philanthropy is hard to track, particularly because the status of the couple’s foundation is unclear.

Greene sits on the board of the Palm Beach Police Foundation, whose mission includes providing scholarships and grants for police department family members.

POLICY: Another Greene project, the Greene Institute, focused on policy development for inequality, education, and health but appears to be defunct at this time.

Today the bulk of his fortune is in real estate.

ISSUES:

FLORIDA COMMUNITY: Greene and Mei Sze founded the Greene School in Palm Beach. This investment has been described as the most successful trade in history by an individual on Wall Street.

Greene today manages a vast portfolio of financial investments and investments in real estate and hospitality.

He received a Bachelor of Arts degree in economics and sociology from Johns Hopkins in just two and a half years.

LOOKING FORWARD: This couple’s giving remains opaque, and the status of their family foundation is not clear at this time.

He later traveled the country selling circus tickets to pay for Harvard Business School.

I’m excited about our new artificial intelligence program, our inaugural robotics team’s progress, and the students’ upcoming dance performance at the Kravis Center. Greene has twice run for office as a Democrat in the state of Florida.
