Forbes magazine today publishes its list of the richest individuals on the planet. In Mexico, the question is: Will mogul Carlos Slim finally capture the top spot from U.S. billionaires Bill Gates and Warren Buffet.
Analysts are forecasting that Warren Buffett, who topped the list only once, will again come in behind his friend and online bridge partner, Bill Gates, who has captured the No. 1 spot 13 times.
Mexican businessman Carlos Slim, who was estimated by online publication Sentido Comun at one point during the recession year of 2009, to be the world's richest man, is expected appear at No. 3, a position he has occupied in the last three Forbes' rankings.
