Dean White (b. 1924) is a billionaire entrepreneur from Crown Point, Indiana. His father challenged him to "make a million dollars by your 40th birthday". White claims that he's "Missed, at the most, 12 days of work since 1946."[citation needed]
In 1946 he joined his father's billboard business Whiteco Advertising Company, and took over in 1952. White sold his billboard business to Chancellor for $960 million in 1998.[citation needed]
