It is thanks to the "fourth power" that we can learn the news and savor the details of the personal lives of the stars and the powers that be. It is thanks to the work of the media that it does not remain a secret for us who is the richest person in the world.
Who doesn't like to talk about the rich and famous? Not belonging to the class of these people, a huge number of ordinary citizens love to study the pages of glossy magazines with images and interviews of the rich and famous. The richest man in the world - that's what magazines and newspapers follow more than this man himself. A fan of compiling lists of this kind is the popular and authoritative magazine Forbes. It is difficult to say whether the opinion of the press is objective, because much remains behind the scenes, and only a beautifully wrapped gift falls into the hands, or rather, into the eyes of the public. Therefore, it is necessary to judge who is the richest person in the world only according to the data that the "fourth power" gives the people.
It is worth noting that, despite the unrest due to the global economic crisis, there are more thanwe althy people of the world observed calm and stability. Carlos Slim Elu, according to Forbes, is the richest man in the world. As a Mexican, he owns a telecommunications giant called America Movil. At the time of the magazine's release (March 4), its capital increased by $4 billion compared to the previous year. A year ago, in 2012, the fortune of Carlos Slim Elu was 69 billion. The Mexican has steadfastly held his position for the past four years. In addition to the main television business, the tycoon is also developing other open spaces, acquiring shares in the coal industry, real estate, football clubs and tobacco companies. Carlos also has a stake in America's most famous and independent newspaper, The New York Times.
On the second line of the hit parade "The richest man in the world" is comfortably located the American "tamer" machines with intelligence, the founder of Microsoft and the most popular operating system - Bill Gates. The size of the capital of this IT genius is 67 billion in US national currency. It should be noted that the computer genius for a long time staunchly held on to the first positions of the list, until he was overtaken by a Mexican telecommunications owner. Today, Bill Gates devotes more and more time to his family and charity.
All over the world, excellent quality clothing with the beautiful name "Zara" is very popular. The owner of thisbrand and founder of "Inditex" Amancio Ortega triumphantly ascended to the third step of the podium in the race for the title of "The richest man in the world." Thanks to the same brand, his fortune almost doubled in one year and amounted to 57 billion US dollars. This businessman became the richest man in Europe, taking the palm from Bernard Arnault. Ortega pushed the famous American businessman Warren Buffett off his pedestal. He and his "stylish" fortune of $53.5 billion are now in fourth place on the Forbes list, a magazine whose pages only make it to the powerful.
The richest Russian businessman takes 34th place in the updated "hit parade". This person is the "iron" tycoon "Metallinvest" and the general director of the largest holding company "Gazprom" Alisher Usmanov. To date, his fortune is more than 17 billion US dollars. Mikhail Fridman follows him, and Leonid Mikhelson closes the top three of Russian billionaires. Each is worth $16.5 billion and $15.4 billion respectively.
It is worth saying that even together, the three leaders of the list "The richest man in the world" will not be able to catch up with John D. Rockefeller, whose fortune was almost 300 billion dollars.
