Carlos Slim, a Mexican telecom magnate, has taken over the spot of 2nd richest man in the world from Warren Buffet. The reason I mention this is because of a quote in the article I read...
Slim said shortly afterward that he wasn't concerned about his ranking or taking over the top spot, but he expressed differences with Buffett, the chairman of Berkshire Hathaway Inc., and Gates, the chairman and co-founder of Microsoft Corp.
"It's not about having who knows how many bonds, to spend them on whatever one wants or live it up all year," said Slim, an engineer who wears modest suits and whose main indulgence appears to be expensive cigars. "I don't have apartments abroad. I don't have a house abroad."
No houses, no apartments. Only expensive cigars... What does he smoke? I wonder
My question is... Have any of you editors came across this man or his collection or even heard anything? Because when you are worth 53.1 Billion dollars, you have to be holding something special.
I just like cigars, is that ok?
