America’s newest quarter-billionaire, who just completed one of the largest corporate buyout deals in history, plans to relax a bit for the next few months.

Among John Wilder’s main ambitions in that timespan are driving coast-to-coast, reading the Bible cover to cover, riding a camel, camping with his sons, and learning how to ballroom dance.

The former chairman and CEO of TXU is now technically unemployed. But he personally walked away with more than $270 million from the $32 billion private equity buyout, completed last week.
