Texas billionaire
Oil-money cattle baron
A Texas billionaire is a wealthy person whose fortune derives from oil, cattle, technology, or other industries associated with the state.
The phrase often carries connotations of brash self-confidence, political conservatism, and ostentatious displays of wealth—big hats, big ranches, big opinions: Another Texas billionaire is buying up media companies.
The stereotype suggests someone who made money in rough industries and isn't shy about spending it.
