First thing that jumped out to me is the error of listing Warren Buffet as the founder of Berkshire Hathaway. Berkshire Hathaway has been around since the mid 1800s. Makes me skeptical of the accuracy of the rest of the list. Especially of omissions.<p>Given the age of many Fortune 500 companies - many of their founders would be dead - what would be more interesting to see is a list/count/percentage of CEOs who founded their company and remained CEO through the company's original growth phase into the Fortune 500.<p>An obvious example would be someone like Bill Gates. Even though he's not the CEO anymore, he guided the company through its growth from a few people to Fortune 500 status, and deserves recognition at least equal to the folks on the list here.
