Who is Charles Schwab heir? Take a look inside at Michael Schwab's $35 million wave pool in Mexico

Hindustan Times27-05-2025
While Charles Schwab established his name and billions of dollars by transforming the brokerage industry, his son is creating waves of a different type by establishing a surfing community on the Mexican coast.
Michael Schwab is a partner in the construction of the Cabo Real Surf Club in Los Cabos, Mexico, which is scheduled to open in 2026 via his private real estate investment entity Meriwether Companies. It will feature the first Endless Surf wave basin in North America, which will be 4 acres and over 800 feet long, as per Realtor.com.
According to Schwab, there are just a few wave basins in the world. However, this isn't a splash pool. The waves will create rides up to seven feet high and lasting up to 25 seconds.
The estimated cost of the wave pool alone, which Endless Surf is powering, is $35 million. Then there is the real estate aspect, where lower-end properties range from $2.5 million to $6 million.
'It's more fun this way,' said Schwab. 'You can't put a bunch of people on that wave, just you.'

About 200 people would live in luxury homes in the 3,000-acre master-planned neighborhood, and the basin will provide 400 adjustable waves each hour, ranging from gentle wave to a 'crushing barrel' that a pro would consider difficult.
Erin Brooks, a 17-year-old surfing sensation, has purchased a property along the basin since it is so spectacular.
'She wants a place to live in a warm climate, where she can surf every day no matter what,' Schwab told Realtor.com®.
Brooks stated that she decided to purchase a house at the Cabo Real Surf club since it provides "the ultimate amenities" for her 'surf-focused lifestyle.'
'The private, world-class wave pool is a game changer; and the fitness center, beach club, tennis courts, and golf course provide everything I need to stay in peak shape, elevate my surfing, and make the most of every day,' she explained.

World Economic Forum finds no evidence of wrongdoing by founder Klaus Schwab

The World Economic Forum on Friday said its board had completed an investigation into allegations against WEF founder Klaus Schwab and found that "there is no evidence of material wrongdoing" by him. The World Economic Forum had launched an investigation in April into Schwab following a whistleblower letter alleging misconduct by him. The announcement of the investigation came after Schwab said he was resigning as chairman in April, without stating a reason. The Geneva-based organisation also said it has appointed BlackRock CEO Larry Fink and Roche Holding's Vice-Chair Andre Hoffmann as interim co-chairs of its board.

McLaren Puts Unreleased Car Up For Auction In A 'First Of Its Kind' Announcement

Last Updated: McLaren boss Zak Brown opined that the auction would mark the first-ever time an unreleased F1 car has been put up for sale. In a first-of-its-kind move, Formula One side McLaren announced the auction of one of its 2026 F1 cars even before the manchine's debut on the racetrack. McLaren has put up three chassis in an action organised by RM Sotheby's, slated to be held on the 5th of December, ahead of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. McLaren boss Zak Brown opined that the auction would be the first time a future F1 car had been sold before it had been unveiled to the public. The other two are a 2026 Arrow McLaren Indycar, set to race at the Indianapolis 500 next May by Mexican driver Pato O'Ward, and McLaren's inaugural 2027 World Endurance Hypercar, which will compete in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The yet unnamed 2026 car will mark the team's entry into a new era of Formula One, featuring significant changes in technical and engine regulations. The successful bidder will have to wait until 2028 to take delivery, with a 2025 show car offered on lease until then. The buyer will also receive behind-the-scenes access to the team and events. The other cars will be delivered after their respective series conclude. view comments First Published: August 15, 2025, 09:07 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

McLaren To Auction 2026 F1 Car Before It Has Been Raced

The winning bidder will have to wait until 2028 for delivery, with a 2025 show car provided on lease until then. Champions McLaren achieved a first on Thursday by announcing the auction of one of their 2026 Formula One cars before it has even been raced. The F1 car, to be driven by either Oscar Piastri or Lando Norris, is one of three future chassis offered by McLaren in the December 5 sale organised by RM Sotheby's ahead of this year's season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. The other two include a 2026 Arrow McLaren Indycar, which will be raced at the Indianapolis 500 next May by Mexican Pato O'Ward, and McLaren's inaugural 2027 World Endurance Hypercar that will compete in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. McLaren Chief Executive Zak Brown stated that this would be the first time a future Formula One car has been sold before its public unveiling. The yet-to-be-named 2026 car, potentially the MCL40 following this year's MCL39, will mark the team's first in a new era of Formula One, featuring significant technical and engine regulation changes. The winning bidder will have to wait until 2028 for delivery, with a 2025 show car provided on lease until then. The buyer will also gain behind-the-scenes access to the team and events. The other cars will be delivered after their respective series conclude. McLaren, the only team to have won the 'Triple Crown' of the Monaco Grand Prix, Indianapolis 500, and Le Mans, will aim to add to their legacy when they return to endurance racing in 2027.
