Legendary oilman T. Boone Pickens experienced a mini-stroke while in Dallas with friends a few days before Christmas.
According to Jay Rosser, Pickens’ chief of staff, the billionaire founder and chairman of BP Capital Management was hospitalized at Baylor University Medical Center for a few days but is now back to work. Rosser said Pickens’ speech has been affected. Pickens is undergoing daily speech therapy.
In a later social media message, the Oklahoma-born Pickens indicated that he is reducing his schedule for the next three months.
