Forbes will reveal today its list of billionaires.

My buddies at Forbes already told me who they are, but you plebeians will have to wait until 11 PM (6 PM EST) to find out.

MWHAHAHAHAHA  :showoff:

Place your bets.

Carlos Slim?

Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

That's my bet.  Being a crony capitalist in a third world country is a much safer bet than owning volatile equities and funding charities in US.

Plus Mittal has had problems with Corus and the Nano during the last year.

I'll add that it was a VERY close race.

So close, in fact, that if it was an election, there would probably be a recount.

People read Forbes magazine?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Is it that important?

Maybe when you are so rich, the only thing that matters is beating your competition.

The only thing that matters is to find alchemists who can give you mortality.

Actually, alchemists are quite good at this.
I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

It's me, for I am rich in friendship.

Not with anyone from Languish, obviously.

Yeah, I don't think Gates even wanted to keep the title.
