What are your standards when you think of a livable city? Your ideal city might be a nature conscious, no smog, no noise, and a relaxed city. But that would differ since each of us have varying tastes and preferences. Someone, thankfully, made this job a lot easier for us. Praise the Economist Intelligence Unit who sends out an annual report of the most livable cities in the world that complies to “30 factors spread across five areas: stability, health care, culture and environment, education, and infrastructure.”

Carlos Slim Helu and family is the world's richest man

Anyway let me talk a bit more of Carlos Slim Helu and who he is and why he has become the world's richest person.
