Bless his heart
The phrase, "bless his heart" or "bless her heart", is a powerful weapon, allowing one to say some really nasty things about people as long as it's
tacked on the end.

Of course he's richer than Gates or Buffett. Those guys give billions to charity, while Slim has the first centavo he ever made....bless his heart.

He should now call himself "Carlos Gordo" and drop the "Slim", now that he is la mas rico tan todos de los gatos gordos.
Bless his heart.

Carlos Slim
Carlos' beautiful 150 foot yacht "Ostar" was moored in Loreto in late May and early June.......a crew member said that the invited guests were Mexican
and Columbian pop stars Lucero and Shakira. Wow.
Carlos flew in from Guaymas to party for a day with his sons and his entourage.
Que viejo verde!! Bless his heart.

Heh--------ease up!!!!! You too can share in the wealth!!! Slim, Gates and Buffett all run publicly traded companies that YOU can invest in and make
money right along with them------it is the American way!!! I have invested in all three companies (TelMex, Microsoft, and Birkshire Hathaway) for
many, many years, and they certainly have increased my net worth------what's not to like?

Good point. Many of us like the Berkshire Hathaway Class A shares at $110,000 per share. But if that's too rich, you can pick up the "B" shares at a
piddling $3,700 per share. Who can I put down for a nice round lot of 100 shares?

When I bought the B shares of Birkshire Hathaway they did not cost nearly that much (well under $1K a piece)-------timing is everything-------which is
my point--------get "in" when they dip, and ride them to glory. I can guarantee you that I don't own many of them, but the ones I do own have
increased several hundred percent over the recent past.
Telmex and Microsoft are reasonable, tho, but again should be bought on a "dip", and not now.
