World’s Richest Men
Warren Buffet just became the world’s richest man according to Forbes.com with a net worth of $62 Billion. Warren’s fortunes went up $10B last year. Number two on the list is Mexico’s Carlos Slim who is worth a measely $60B. And after 13 years, Bill Gates has finally come off the top spot and is currently ranked # 3 with a net worth of $58B.
I wonder what these guys must feel like, when waking up in the morning and saying wow I’m worth $62,000,000,000.00. I wake up in the morning trying to figure out how to pay a $947.00 mortgage and stress out. I’ve been contemplating on purchasing Buffet’s Biography and I’ve heard good reviews on the book, I think I might pick it up within the next week or two. I’ve read the prologue and it seems like a very interesting read to say the least. Maybe after readig the book, I’ll wake up each morning not having to worry about getting bills paid and start conquering the world. =/
