Bill Gates and his best buddy Warren Buffett flip-flop again : http://www.forbes.com/2009/03/11/worlds-richest-people-billionaires-2009-billionaires-intro.html http://www.forbes.com/2009/03/11/worlds-richest-people-billionaires-2009-billionaires_land.html Complete List : http://www.forbes.com/lists/2009/10...hest-people_The-Worlds-Billionaires_Rank.html
As per the Chronicle http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/front/6305970.html Reputed Mexican cartel boss makes Forbes' billionaires list Buffett. Bill Gates. Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman? As if Mexico doesn’t have enough image problems, a reputed drug cartel boss landed on the Forbes magazine list of billionaires. Guzman, whose nickname means "shorty," just made the cut as he was tied for 701st on the list, with a fortune estimated to be worth $1 billion. Guzman, 54, is said to be head of the Mexico-based Sinaloa Cartel. He follows in the footsteps of Colombian Pablo Escobar, who also made the Forbes list back in his day, and was considered the ultimate godfather until he was killed in a shoot out in 1993. Guzman muscling his way into the world’s most elite club likely rubs salt in Mexico’s wounds, as the nation has suffered mightily during a protracted war with the cartels. It also likely further cements his legendary status as the chief of a multibillion-dollar underworld empire. As for Guzman’s legitimate job? The musical group Los Tucanes tells his story: he’s just a corn farmer. You've made it big selling rock if you made it to Forbes...
Sam Walton used to drive a beat up pickup truck and buy his own Walmart suits back in the day for around $70. Hehe.
