Yes!

Lets compare how many millionaires Ol’ Slim has created to how many Bill Gates has created?

And DB, is that a real poncho or a Sears poncho?

By the way, Señor Slim also owns the Anaheim Angels ball team. As well as a heck of a lot of Mexicano Markets in So Cali and the SW USA.

The only reason he’s overtaken him, is because Gates is giving so much of his away these days…

Ok, go for it.

:laughing: It’s from el Palacio de Hierro, dude. Anyway, I’ve got more Mexican blood in me than he does. :smiley:

Yeah, I read that Bill peaked at 90 or 100 billion or something, and he’s down to 59.2Bn. Slim is up because of a surge in his stock price. He, like Gates, is reported to have made many large charitable donations. :idunno:

Slim is worth something like 8% of Mexico’s GDP. Pretty sad, huh?
