Gates plummets to third richest dude status
Yahvole bid to blame, says Forbes
RICH PERSON William G Gates has shot himself in the foot by bidding for Yawho? says business rag Forbes in its annual rich list.
Gates is now ranked third after Warren Buffett ($62bn) and Mexican telecoms magnate Carlos Slim Helú ($60bn). Bill's personal worth is now $58bn - up $2bn on last year - but the mag reckons he would be as rich or richer than Buffett had he not lusted after Yahwho?
Forbes points out that Microsoft shares fell considerably after the Yahvole bid and that almost half of Gate's net worth is in MS stock. µ

Get your head out of the sand
Are you so naive to really believe they are even close to being the rickest men on the planet. They are the richest men that own publicly traided companies. The richest people own the world not some poor sap that is only worth billions . Try multipling that amount by 10,000 and then you start to get close to what the richest is really worth. The richest man is worth approx 500 Trillion USD. Every person in the USA that pays personel income tax pays these people,not 1 cent goes to the US government. We are talking trillions of dollars per year just from the USA. So pull your head out of the sand and wake up.!
Conspiracy theory fanboi! And the loot! w00t!
