These Billionaires Control The World And You Probably Don’t Even Know Their Names

Carlos Slim Helu – $60.4 Billion

Starting the list off is Helu, a Mexican businessman, investor, and philanthropist. Incredibly between 2010 to 2013, he was named the richest person in the world by Forbes but received little to no media attention.

Through his conglomerate, Grupo Carso, Slim was able to make extensive profits through several Mexican companies. His conglomerate involves a vast range of industries ranging from health care, education, sports, real estate, manufacturing, and more. If that isn’t impressive enough, Carlos accounts for more than 40% of the listings on the Mexican Stock Exchange.
