Forbes released 2011 World's Billionaires list

Forbes have recently released and updated their World's Billionaires list. The top 10 in the 2011 shows an increase in fortune in almost all of those who were previously at the same spot in the 2010 list. But who really gained and who's fortune declined?

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

Carlos Slim Helu

If you were asked who is the world's richest man, the safest answer that you can give is Bill Gates (William Gates III). True, that he is rich but not as rich as that man in the photo. Bill Gates though, I think, have been the richest man in the world for the longest time in Forbes' The World Billionaires list.
