INTERESTING FACT

Five Richest People Today

We actually had to modify this fact due to recent changes in the billionaire world. Thirteen years our buddy Bill Gates from Winblows was the richest man in the world. However, as of 2008 the top five richest people are: 1. Warren Buffett (Stocks and investments), 2.Carlos Slim Helu (Mexican telecom mogul), 3. William Gates III (Windows and more), 4. Lakshmi Mittal (World's largest steelmaker - India), 5. Mukesh Ambani (Petrochemicals giant Reliance Industries - India). We will try to update this list as soon as rich get richer.

This has never been accurate. There are individuals in this world who hold more riches than pairs from this list. These people have enough money and power to keep themselves off this list, for listing thier riches would shock the world. Figure out who controls the banks, the money, and therefore the people. That is the true richest. I personaly believe good ole Cheney is ahead of most on this list, He doesnt want people to know that though.
