It's Carlo Slim Helu On July 3, 2007, a report by Mexican financial journalist Eduardo Garcia indicated that Slim's wealth had exceeded that of Microsoft founder Bill Gates, making him the world's wealthiest person. Recent gains in his shares in the America Movil group are largely responsible for his recent increase in wealth, boosting his fortune to an estimated 67.8 billion dollars compared with the estimated fortune of 59.2 billion dollars for Bill Gates.
