Carlos Slim is definitely old school. He's of the tried and true "guerrilla billionaire" strategy: buy lots of businesses and either keep them for the cash flow or fix 'em up and sell them. The goal is to make money off a lot of deals instead of a killing on just one.
Good post, I enjoy reading your blog! Thanks Cindy S.
It would be good if there is picture of him, I do not have any idea how he look like.
Whenever I read about these rich people that made it big time I wonder what it may mean to me. I always come to the same answer - focus on building my wealth one dime at a time. I found extremely relevant ideas in People’s Financial Advisor’s website - www.peoplesfinancialadvisor.com and blog - http://www.peoplesfinancialadvisor.com/personalfinance/
Being an Indian, great to see two Indian's in top 5 list for world's richest person. Hurray!!!!!!!!
