Most of us think of Bill Gates as the richest man in the world followed well that big position has now moved down south from Microsoft to Mexico.
This is enough to burst a few American egos. America's very own Bill Gate's stranglehold on the position of the world's richest human being has been broken by a man, from Mexico, the US's poor impoverished neighbor.
According to Sentido ComĂșn, a Mexican financial website, Carlos Slim HelĂș, a 67yearold turnaround specialist, is worth $8.6 billion more than Gates. He displaced Gates after his company America Movil's shares rose by 27 per cent, taking his total assets to a whopping $67.84 billion. Bill Gates who ruled the world for over 13 years is said to be worth $59.2 billion.
