interesting is Jim, John, Alice, and Helen Walton come in at 11th 12th 13th and 14th place respectively - over 90 billion between them, they were all equal heirs in their Dads - Sam Waltons fortune, if he were still alive he would be twice as rich as Bill!
Lawrence = Larry Ellison = Oracle computer software and Americas cup backing
Ingevar Kamprad = Ikea furniture
Paul Allen = Bills Gates right hand man
Warren Buffet = the worlds greatest stock market player investor, his firm is Berkshire Hathaway and they trade for about $70000 a share - no sh#t
Saudi dude = oil
Mittal = steel - Indian steel and lots of it

Michael Dell was 18th with $16 Billion - not bad for a churnig out afew computers, not too shabby.
