the new, new - Richest person in the World is....

My man....Warren Buffett.










According to this Bloomberg.com article, Mr. Buffett has reclaimed his #1 spot on the richest person in the world list.

Carlos Slim and Bill Gates - his buddy (the 2nd and 3rd richest humans respectively) lost some grand apparently with the recent bear market.

Buffett still knows how to 'pick 'em' though and that's helping him still make money while the market seems to be falling apart.

Way to go Mr. Buffet - I wish I would've bought some B-shares when I had a chance.

BIll Gates, no longer world's richest man...

While looking up Warren Buffet for my prior post, I came across an interesting turn of phrase -

"....wealth had exceeded that of Microsoft founder Bill Gates, making him the world's wealthiest person."

According to wikipedia.org - a very trustworthy (*ahem*) news-source This Guy :




is now the richest man alive.

I just thought I'd share...Congratulations Carlos.
