The Rockstar Energy Drink founder cashed out
in April, selling the $850 million (est. 2019 sales)
business to PepsiCo for nearly $3.9 billion. Weiner
told Forbes in March, as coronavirus cases were
spiking, that the deal “shows the American dream
is still alive and well.” He started Rockstar in 2001
with $50,000 of his own money. The drink is now
sold in more than 30 countries.
