Warren Buffett - Richest Person In The World Once Again
Mar 6th, 2008 by Shaun Carter
Warren Buffett, the world renowned CEO of Berkshire Hathaway, has once again earned the title of World’s Richest Person. Buffett beat out Bill Gates after having been the wealthiest person on the Forbes list for the past 13 years.
It seems inevitable though that Warren Buffett’s newfound glory will be short lived as Mexican business tycoon Carlos Slim is generating wealth at an extraordinary pace - doubling his net worth in only two short years. His stranglehold on the Mexican telecom industry is very lucrative, success that in the US would most likely result in landmark anti-trust investigations of a scale larger than Microsoft’s troubles with the European Union.
