After 13 years on top, Bill Gates is no longer the richest man in the world. That honor now belongs to his friend and sometimes bridge partner Warren Buffett.

Riding the surging price of Berkshire Hathaway stock, Buffett has seen his fortune swell to an estimated $62 billion, up $10 billion from a year ago.

Gates is now worth $58 billion and is ranked third richest in the world. He is up $2 billion from a year ago, but would have been as rich--or richer--than Buffett, had Microsoft not made an unsolicited bid for Yahoo! at the beginning of February. Mexican telecom mogul Carlos Slim Helú now ranks as the world's second richest person with a net worth of $60 billion.

1. Warren Buffet $62 Billion

2. Carlos Slim $60 Billion

3. Bill Gates $58 Billion

I totally thought i heard that on the radio! :doh!: Ok, i am going to edit this. Thanks!

The Worlds richest person is God! He owns all the world,and all life in it.When the hand of death comes for these so called "rich guys," they can do nothing to stay its hand. I used to admire wealthy persons also, until one day I saw the saying below written on a wall,and it made me snap. These wealthy people may seem to possess great riches at present,but "it is only temporary fleeting riches!"

Friedrich Nietzsche is notable for having declared that God is dead.

A person was passing by a wall and stopped to read what someone had written there, Here is what written. - Author Unknown

GOD IS DEAD

NIETZSCHE!

Below this someone else had written the following words.


NIETZSCHE IS DEAD,

GOD!

^^a question is that why the church's are all about the money?

The churches are about money ,not God!Your putting the cart before the horse, if God thought like humans, then he could charge us for everything under the sun! Since he owns everything!" In other words if money could buy life,then only the rich would live. But with God life is free for all, and so is eternal life!

Psshh-I couldn't even begin to imagine who I could do with $62 billion!

we"re starting to get off topic faith, religion and god has nothing to do with money.....

Your right, I wont bring God in to it anymore,since money is man made and temporal.While God is Eternal, but I just can't get over the" In God We Trust" On our Money!
